Dates for the calendar
REC registration - Your teams will need to be registered with the REC for attending these events
All other events on this calendar will be run independently by international schools in Thailand and no registration with REC is required. These independently run events will be conducted to the same high standards as set by the REC, and that you have been accustomed to over the past 7 years.
Exciting Robotics Competitions
VEX IQ Robotics Competition:
Rapid Relay | 2024-2025
VEX V5 Robotics Competition:
High Stakes | 2024-2025 Game
VEX IQ Robotics Competition Rapid Relay is played on a 6’ x 8’ rectangular field configured as seen above. Two robots compete in the Teamwork Challenge as an alliance in 60 second long teamwork matches, working collaboratively to score points.
Teams also compete in the Robot Skills Challenge where one robot takes the field to score as many points as possible. These matches consist of Driving Skills Matches, which will be entirely driver controlled, and Autonomous Coding Skills Matches, which will be autonomous with limited human interaction.
VEX V5 Robotics Competition High Stakes is played on a 12’ x 12’ square field configured as seen above. Two (2) Alliances – one (1) “red” and one (1) “blue” – composed of two (2) Teams each, compete in matches consisting of a fifteen (15) second Autonomous Period, followed by a one minute and forty-five second (1:45) Driver Controlled Period.
The object of the game is to attain a higher score than the opposing Alliance by Scoring Rings on Stakes, Placing Mobile Goals, and by Climbing at the end of the Match.
