Event Agenda
Welcome to our Remote Skills-Only VEX IQ Event!
- Looking for a weekend competition to practice VEX IQ for VEX Worlds
- Join 20+ teams around the world to learn from each other and have fun!
- Make new friends and have a good time at VEX Worlds
We're STEAM for Vietnam from Vietnam and our organization will have 20 teams to compete at VEX Worlds this year (Super excited!).
We're organizing this event for our teams to practice VEX IQ so yeah, we hope to have teams from around the world to join us for this cool event!
The event is free. All your need is a robot, a field and some technical stuff. All set up and ready to have fun!
What will happen at a remote tournament?
-
First of all, this event will be played fully online, so anyone can join remotely!!!
- Additionally, This event is skills-only
What is Skills-Only?
This means that the score you get at this event can contribute to your overall skills standings, no matter where on earth you live!
This also means that you will only play skills matches: driver and autonomous (no teamwork matches).
Each team will have the chance to play 3 driver skills matches and 3 autonomous matches throughout the event.
The robot with the highest skills score will win the event!
We will send out match schedules once all of the teams have joined the meeting.
What does "Remote" mean?
This VEX IQ competition will be held entirely through Zoom. Before the event, we will send you the meeting link and password.
This means that you will need to have:
1. A device capable of joining a Zoom meeting with video;
2. A field and game elements to play matches on; and
3. The ability to compete under the Remote, Live Skills conditions described in the Game Manual: https://content.vexrobotics.com/docs/viqc-rise-above/VIQC-GameManual-10012020.pdf
We will be running matches live, and teams will be able to live stream their matches into Zoom. Per the Game Manual, the Head Referee will be a certified referee for this event.
