EDR Competition Teams – STEAM Bot Workshop

STEAM Bot Workshop is proud to have three VEX EDR Competition Teams!

VEX EDR 2020-2021 Challenge

Matches are played on a field set up as illustrated in the figures throughout. Two Alliances – one “red” and one “blue” – composed of two Teams each, compete in each Match. The object of the game is to attain a higher score than the opposing Alliance by Scoring Balls and Connecting Rows.

An Autonomous Win Point is awarded to any Alliance that completes a Connected Row using their Alliance Home Row at the end of the Autonomous Period.

A point bonus is awarded to the Alliance that has the most points at the end of the Autonomous Period.

Our 2020-2021 season recap:

During this season our teams worked hard with our coaches and made it to the worlds championship competition! Both teams made great accomplishments! Team 1877K Garage Bots, a middle school team made it to division finals. Team1877C Iron bots, also a middle school team, ranked 26 in skills.

Details

There are seventy-two (72) Rings and seven (7) Mobile Goals on a VRC Tipping Point Field. Each Alliance has two (2) Alliance Mobile Goals, with the remaining three (3) Goals being neutral. Each Alliance also has a Platform located in their Home Zone.

Rings scored on an Alliance Mobile Goal will count for the respective Alliance, regardless of where it ends the Match. However, Rings scored on Neutral Goals will only count for an Alliance if the Mobile Goal ends the Match in their Home Zone!

As the Match draws to a close, Robots will start heading back towards their Alliance Platforms. Alliances can earn additional points for each Robot and Mobile Goal that ends the Match Elevated on a Balanced Alliance Platform.

The Alliance that scores more points in the Autonomous period is awarded with six (6) bonus points, added to the final score at the end of the match. Each Alliance also has the opportunity to earn an additional Win Point by scoring at least one Ring on each of their Alliance’s Mobile Goals, and “Clearing” their Autonomous Win Point Line. This Bonus can be earned by both Alliances, regardless of who wins the Autonomous Bonus.
