VEX IQ Gen 2

Released August 2021

STEM education has evolved since the introduction of VEX IQ in 2013, and the robot construction system needed to evolve as well. The VEX engineers have made hundreds of minor improvements to the VEX IQ system, however, it is still the IQ system you know today, and it is all forwards and backwards compatible. We worked closely with STEM educators and mentors, and we’ve taken their feedback into account in this redesign as well. Advancements in silicon chipsets and battery technologies have also allowed for the integration of new features and capabilities in our robotics platform.

VEX EXP Kits & Bundles

Released August 2021

VEX EXP brings everything great about the V5 system to the classroom at a significantly lower price. The competition environment requires more powerful motors, additional ports, a touch screen for operation away from a computer, and longer metal structural parts for larger robots. Competition robots are weight critical and therefore use lighter, and more expensive, aluminum structures.
