Advanced Robotics Week is a dedicated robotics experience for students who are ready for a real challenge. Students spend the full day working with VEX IQ and VEX AI — progressing from complex structured builds to AI-powered autonomous robotics by week's end. VEX VR runs throughout as a design and simulation environment.

At the advanced level, robotics becomes something closer to real engineering work. Students are not following instructions — they are making design decisions, writing autonomous programs, and leading within their team. VEX IQ and VEX AI together create a progression that challenges students to think about robotics as a system: what does the robot need to know, how does it need to respond, and what happens when the environment changes? VEX VR gives students the simulation environment to test their thinking before it goes into hardware — exactly how professional engineers work.

Advanced Robotics Week is for the student who has outgrown introductory programs and needs an environment that meets them at their level. A full week of VEX IQ and VEX AI, supported by VEX VR simulation, creates an experience genuinely unlike anything available in a standard one-hour class. If your child asks harder questions, wants more responsibility, and gets energized by complexity — this week was built for them.
