What you will learn

Assemble a test rig with a motor and several sensors

Use the Robot C interface to set up motors and sensors

They will understand and apply motor control commands

They will write loops and forever loops which have the robot constantly checking sensor inputs

They will use variable which stores distance to an obstacle and use it to optimise movement

Why take this course?

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.

Would recommend this course for an absolute beginner. Clear instruction and was just above basic with some of the programming lanquage.

Would suggest for beginners, and people who wish to learn about vex sensors. But it was limited for me to learn about more fancy stuff here.

I really like how he gave a clear detail in each video lesson , was easier to understand what he was saying and what he was doing.

Potentially good, but so far spoiled by blurred images sometimes, and lack of clarity about why the setup of sensors/motors was done like that (what do those sensors do? What is the difference between them? How did they end up being already available in the list of choices? etc.)

Explanations very well done. Learned new things, things I have programmed with but did not know what exactly it was.
