Vex Robotics has introduced a new Wi-Fi controller kit that enables Mac users to program robots.

“I had to write programs to make the robot go into a square with different commands like set mode or speed,” said Aaron Chea, 8, who competed in last year’s Vex IQ tournament.

Kindergarteners in North Dakota work on a robotics activity that uses Ozobots. In some Hawaii schools, students use VEX robots to learn robotics concepts and to help prepare them for STEM careers.
