VEX World's 2025
VEX Robotics is a worldwide competition for middle and high school students who design and build a robot to compete in a game-based engineering challenge. More than 24,000 teams from 60 countries participate in over 2,500 tournaments. Tournaments are held throughout the school year at the regional, state, and national levels, culminating in the VEX Robotics World Championship in April. The challenges test both the tele-operated and autonomous behavior of the robots on the game field. The robots are powered by a VEX Robotics hardware. By applying Model-Based Design, students can efficiently design and build a functioning robot using MATLAB and Simulink.
