JacksBEST Robotics - May 2025

| View in browser 2025 Jackrabbit Best Robotics Jerome J Lohr College of Engineering- South Dakota State University 2025 Game Teaser  Our region will be competing with  Vex V5. We have had a change in direction on the kit upgrades. We will be replacing the Cortex controller with the Vex 5 controller. Yes, we have been talking about the Raspberry Pi based Gizmo for a couple of years now, but things just didn’t pan out on that front. Vex 5 has been around long enough it can be considered a mature and dependable product. There are a lot of robotics programs using it and it looks  a lot like the Cortex we have been using since 2012. DATE Change - 2025 Event Dates   Registration is currently open until September 1st.
