VEX U robots on the competition field

VEX

VexU

Collegiate robotics team building two custom robots to work together and win a World Title.

About VexU

VexU is about high-speed, head-to-head collegiate competition on a global stage. This season, we are taking on the complex challenges of the Override game. To dominate the field, our team designs, builds, and programs two completely custom robots—a quick 15-inch model and a powerhouse 24-inch model—that must work together flawlessly. We combine custom 3D-printed parts, precision-cut plastics, and advanced programming to push our machines far beyond the limits of standard kits. Our goal is simple: out-engineer the competition, master Override, and bring a World Title home to Virginia Tech.
