Fundmentals in Robot C and VEX Robotics

Why Vex Robotics?

VEX stands for Video Editor for XML (Extensible Markup Language). VEX Robotics is the ultimate robotics platform for the 7-10 Digital Technologies Curriculum. VEX Robotics hosts the world's largest robotics competition for students all over the world to compete against one another using a robot of their own design. VEX has text-based coding in the most universal programming language: "C'. It also has a capacity for data management and analysis and finally, VEX has a capacity to use coding and robotics to solve real world problems.

What is special about this course?

After eight lessons, students complete several quite advanced examples of INPUT / OUTPUT programming whereby they control the speed and the direction of a motor by bringing their hand closer to and further from a distance sensor. This task is broken down into the simplest possible steps; in each step students add two to three lines of code, experiment with changing variables and observing the output of the robot. This ensures that they understand not only what each line of code does, but how it does it and what will happen when it changes. This course will help you understand and achieve the skills of VEX robotics.
