VEXcode IQ vs Vizeey™

From elementary school through college, VEXcode is a coding environment that meets students at their level. The intuitive layout of VEXcode allows students to get started quickly and easily. VEXcode is consistent across Blocks and Text, across VEX IQ and VEX V5. As students progress from elementary, middle, and high school, they never have to learn a different blocks, code, or toolbar interface. As a result, students can focus on creating with technology, not trying to navigate a new layout. Drive Forward is the new Hello World We all know that robots attract kids to learn. VEX Robotics and VEXcode are providing opportunities for students of all ages to participate in learning the code that makes these robots work. VEX makes computer science come to life through collaborations, hands-on projects, and engaging experiences. From classrooms to competitions, VEXcode helps to create the next generation of innovators. Drag. Drop. Drive. VEXcode Blocks is the perfect platform for those new to coding. Students use the simple drag and drop interface to create functioning programs. Each block's purpose can easily be identified using the visual cues like its shape, color, and label. We've designed VEXcode Blocks to allow those who are new to robotics to get their robot up and running faster. Now, students can focus on being creative and learning computer science concepts, not stuck trying to figure out the interface. More accessible than ever VEXcode even helps across language barriers, allowing student to read blocks and comment programs in their native language. Drag & Drop. Powered by Scratch Blocks. Students and Teachers will feel instantly at home with this familiar environment. Video Tutorials. Grasp concepts faster. Built-in tutorials cover every aspect needed to get up to speed fast. And more tutorials are coming. Help is always there. Getting information on blocks is fast and easy. These resources were written by educators, in a form both teachers and students will grasp quickly. Drivetrain Blocks. A breakthrough in simplicity. From driving forward, making precise turns, setting speed, and stopping precisely, VEXcode makes it easier than ever to control a robot. Setup your VEX robot. Fast. VEXcode's device manager is simple, flexible, and powerful. In no time at all you can setup your robot's drivetrain, controller features, motors, and sensors. 40+ Example projects to choose from. Jumpstart your learning by starting with an existing project, covering every aspect of coding, controlling robots, and learning to use sensors.

Smartphones today pack a ton of technology into a tiny footprint - massive processing power, high-resolution cameras, communications and networking capabilities, and an amazing array of sensors that help these devices accomplish their multitude of tasks. Vizeey™ enables you to easily access the sensors on your smartphone and use them for exploring the world of hidden data that surrounds us. Become a scientist with a high-powered suite of sensors by combining VizeeyTM with your smartphone! Here are a few examples of what you can do! - Play physical data games with your friends - challenge them to the Ninja Walk where you demonstrate your ability to move with zero acceleration! - Read the force of gravity using the accelerometer on your phone - Calculate the height of a tree or fireworks using math and a sensor-generated inclinometer - Measure magnetic fields and conduct experiments using the built-in magnetometer - Wirelessly connect to databot™, an extraordinary science instrument that gives you sixteen more sensor values to explore including CO2 levels, Ultraviolet light, and more! Selected Features - A selection of pre-defined experiments. Pick your experiment, scan the QR code, and press play to start. - Easily export your data in a range of widely used formats by text, email, airdrop or other methods - Remote-control your experiment through a web interface from any browser on any device on the same network as your phone. No need to install anything - all you need is a modern web browser. Smartphone Sensors Supported by Vizeey - Accelerometer - Magnetometer - Gyroscope - Light intensity - Pressure - Microphone - Proximity - GPS *Note: some sensors are not present on every phone.  Data Export Formats - CSV (Comma separated values)  - CSV (Tab-separated values) - Excel Vizeey™ is based on Phyphox, an Open Source app developed at the 2nd Institute of Physics A at the RWTH Aachen University. Experiments created for Vizeey™ should be compatible with Phyphox, although it is possible that development versions may get out of synchronization from time to time.
