General decription:
VEX’s integrated system of components means that students can focus on questions like “what happens if we change this arm?” instead of “why doesn’t this piece fit?”
By utilizing feedback from the students and teachers that use VEX every day, we embrace the value of “continuous improvement” and have developed a system truly driven by its users.
Beginners can get an immediate sense of accomplishment by building basic driveable robots in just a few hours.
VEX EDR robots are driven (literally) by cutting-edge technology adapted by our experts specifically for education. The VEX ARM® Cortex®-based Microcontroller acts as the robot “brain”, allowing for both autonomous and driver control of robots. VEX EDR robots can also bring code to life when programmed using a software solution like ROBOTC (included in ALL VEX kits). This microcontroller also includes VEXnet wireless communication, enabling remote control using up to two VEXnet Joysticks.

Info for teachers:
Hands-on curriculum options from Robomatter and Project Lead the Way (PLTW) give educators the tools that they need to help students develop problem-solving skills and learn programming fundamentals.
The FREE project-based VEX EDR Curriculum teaches the engineering design process in a hands-on manner that helps teachers to challenge, motivate, and inspire their students. The process of building a robot naturally incorporates many STEM lessons and applications, lessons that students will begin to automatically apply as they advance through the program.
