VEX Robotics is educational robotics for everyone. VEX solutions span all levels of both formal and informal education with accessible, scalable, and affordable solutions. Beyond science and engineering principles, VEX encourages creativity, teamwork, leadership, and problem solving among groups. It allows educators of all types to engage and inspire the STEM problem solvers of tomorrow!
SG Education are the exclusive partner of VEX Robotics in the Republic of Ireland. We supply all the components for the annual VEX competitions held throughout the country and work with schools and educational establishments to support the development of STEM education amongst their students.
The Smart Motor does more than just make your wheels spin or arm move. The built in processor, quadrature encoder and current monitor allow for advanced control and feedback through the Robot Brain. Command speed, direction, time, revolutions and degrees Mounts directly to VEX IQ structural components Command motors up to 3,000 times/second Encoder resolution is 0.375 degrees Supports event programming to simplify software The Smart Motor module converts electrical energy from the battery into rotational energy. Motors are the heart of robots, turning wheels, moving arms, and closing claws. The motors square output socket makes connecting the output shafts easy.
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.

VEX 123 is an interactive, programmable robot that takes Computer Science and Computational Thinking off of the screen and brings them to life for younger students (age 4 to 7). Classroom Bundles are the perfect solution for individual classrooms. They can also be shared between two to six classrooms throughout the school year. The bundles contain everything educators need to get started and succeed.
Coding Three Ways : The 123 Robot can be programmed in three uniquely engaging ways:
1. Create sequences using the touch-sensitive buttons on the Robot.
2.Insert physical Coder Cards into the revolutionary VEX Coder and download programs wirelessly to the Robot - no screens needed!
3.Unlock the full power of your 123 Robot with VEXcode 123, available for iPads, Android Tablets, Chromebook, Mac and PC.
The 123 Robot is sophisticated on the inside so that it can be simple on the outside. The robot will move and turn accurately and repeatably which keeps the focus on learning about sequencing and coding.
The Eye Sensor at the front of the robot can detect obstacles, colours, and light level whilst internal sensors detect collisions and robot interactions.
Output light in various colours via the VEX Button on the top of the robot and incorporate sound into your programs too!

The VEX EXP Education Kit brings real world STEM to students aged 14 and up. This kit is designed to build a single robot. The EXP Education Kit comes packaged in two storage bins. Every part in the kit has its own dedicated location with labels inside each bin, keeping everything organised and easily accessible.
The EXP Education Kit comes with everything needed to power, remotely operate, and code your robot. The Robot Brain connects your entire robot together, and includes a colour screen for quick and easy control. A lithium-ion Robot Battery provides all-day classroom usage in most situations and includes a button for quick battery charge indication. The wireless controller enables operation and testing of robot builds and the Optical and Distance Sensors enhance detection capabilities. Smart Motors make it all come to life with power and precision using integrated sensors for accurate movements.
