The IQ Competition Kit makes starting a new VEX IQ Challenge team easy. This kit contains all the parts from the VEX IQ Education Kit and adds another two bins of parts and extra motors to allow teams to build a competitive robot.

Organised Storage is a Game Changer The IQ Competition Kit comes packaged in four storage bins to keep everything organised and easily accessible.

VEX IQ Electronics The IQ Competition Kit comes with everything needed to power, remotely operate, and code your robot. The Robot Brain now includes a colour screen. Improvements have been made to the Robot Battery that lets your competition robots run for even longer, the wireless controller that enables operation and testing of robot builds, and the Optical and Distance Sensors that enhance detection capabilities. Even though we have made many improvements to the electronics, IQ is still forwards and backwards compatible with the 1st generation electronics.

This controller packages analog joysticks and buttons into a familiar video-game style design. A rechargeable battery ensures enough charge to get you through multiple class periods or a full day of competition. Two analog joysticks and ten buttons Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 Radio Wireless pairing to the Robot Brain Wirelessly download programs from VEXcode via USB-C Start and stop programs from the controller Integrated rechargeable battery USB-C Rechargeable - Battery included

VEX IQ Robotics Competition Legal. This kit contains everything needed to get a classroom or VEX IQ Robotics Competition team up and running with Pneumatics.

Pneumatics deliver fast and powerful linear motion that is useful in a variety of applications. Use pneumatics to power your robot's claw, intake deployment, or any mechanism that requires quick motion. In particular, pneumatics are useful in applications requiring only two positions (open/closed, up/down, etc.)

Kit contains

2 x Pneumatic Control Units

2 x Air Tanks

1 x Pneumatic Pump

4 x Pneumatic Cylinders (Small)

4 x Pneumatic Cylinders (Large)

1 x Roll of 4mm tubing

1 x Case of pneumatic fittings

The IQ Optical Sensor is a combination of ambient light, color, proximity and gesture sensor.
Color information is available as RGB, hue and saturation or grayscale.
Color detection works best when the object is closer than 100mm.
The proximity sensor measures reflected light intensity, and as such, the values will change with ambient light and object reflectivity.
The Optical Sensor has a white LED to assist color detection in low light conditions.
The gesture sensor can detect one of four possible gestures, an object (hand or otherwise) moving up, down, left or right over the sensor.
The IQ Optical Sensor works with both IQ Robot Brains (1st and 2nd generation).


Note: The IQ Optical Sensor replaces all the functionality of theVEX IQ Color Sensor (2283012)

These kits contain all the parts needed to convert a 1st Generation VEX IQ Kit to a 2nd Generation Education Kit, minus the electronics. Structural and Motion parts only.

Great for those that already have 1st Generation electronics!

Please note: If you are looking to upgrade to a 2nd Generation Education Kit, you will only need to purchase VEX 2288657. If you'd like to upgrade to a 2nd Generation Competition Kit, you will also need to purchase VEX 2287597.

The IQ Robot Brain is the heart of every VEX IQ robot. Students and teachers can run programs and get important feedback in real-time. Smart Ports automatically detect the type of connected device and handle motors and sensors interchangeably. The IQ Robot Brain also updates sensors and the controller automatically.

Other features include:
Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 Radio
Built-in 6-Axis Gyro/Accelerometer
Color screen with multi-lingual support
Dashboards provide real-time diagnostics
10 Smart Ports
Programmable with VEXcode IQ in Blocks, C++ and Python
Download code wirelessly with the IQ Controller (2nd generation)
MicroSD slot for storage and datalogging

These Omni-Directional wheels roll forward like normal wheels but slide sideways with almost no friction (no skidding during turns). Use these wheels to make your robot turn smoothly or build a holonomic drive train. Diameter approx. 62mm Travel: 200mm (distance covered in 1 revolution) Omni-Directional Wheels roll sideways with very little friction Minimize skidding during turns Made from ABS plastic Rollers are soft rubber-coated ABS

The Bumper Switch gives your robot the sense of touch Low force switch can detect light touch Use to detect walls or limit an arms motion Supports event programming to simplify software

The Colour Sensor detects the colour of objects. Allows your robot to identify the colour of specific objects and improve autonomous behaviour. Measures colours Measures colour hue Measures independent Red, Green, and Blue in 256 levels each Measure ambient light level Supports event programming to simplify software
