Abstract

The VEX Robotics program at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University competes as a part of VEX U competitions, hosted by VEX Robotics Competition. The VEX Robotics program competes with more than 300 teams from all around the world. Based on VEX Robotics Competition for middle and high school students, the VEX Robotics program is allowed more customization and greater flexibility than other grade levels while providing the effective costs and real-world limitations of a restricted development environment. This Year’s VEX Robotics Competition is called Turning Point. The object of the game is to attain a higher score than the opposing Alliance by high scoring or low scoring caps, toggling flags, and by alliance parking or center parking robots on platforms. Prescott’s two teams (gold and blue) compete against each other and other regional teams, with the end goal of competing at VEX World Championships in April, to attempt to win the 2019 VEX University World Championship.
