GATR VEX Robotics @ UF
GATR VEX is the premiere robotics competition organization at the University of Florida. We focus on the intersection of mechanical and software design to compete within the VEX U robotics competition. We're comprised of two teams—GATR1 and GATR2—that function as fully independent competition units. Each team conceptualizes, builds, and programs its own distinct robots, competing alongside one another throughout the season.
