Students worked in groups to construct a robot using the VEX IQ robotics kits. The robots were examined for functionality as well as being run through an obstacle course.
The obstacle course tested the robots ability to:
• drive in a straight line
• climb over an obstacle
• be able to be maneuvered through and around object (cones)
• climb up onto a platform to retrieve an object
• move the object from the platform to a hoop a distance away
• knock over a heavy object
As a finale to the unit the the robots completed by each group battled each other in the gym in a Battle of the Bots where each robots was pitted against the others in an attempt to push the opposing robot from the ring.
