This advanced robotics course introduces students to robotic arms, conveyor systems, and industrial sensors using the VEX CTE Workcell Kit. This course exposes students to robotics, engineering, and industrial automation.

Students will build, program, and automate a 6-axis robotic arm, mastering real-world concepts such as palletizing, sorting, and material transportation. Using VEXcode, they’ll integrate sensors and pneumatics to create fully autonomous systems, simulating real manufacturing and logistics environments.

By the end of the course, students will have hands-on experience with industrial robotics.

Who Is This course For?

  • Students in Years 10 - 12 interested in robotics, engineering, or automation.
  • Future engineers, technicians, and programmers looking for hands-on industry experience.
  • Students who have completed "Smart Builders" and "Advanced Robotics" and want to apply their skills to real-world systems.
  • Teams preparing for robotics competitions in automation and logistics.
  • Not suitable for complete beginners – Students should have prior experience in robotics or coding.
