Wi-Fi Setup#
This section focuses on how to connect your computer to the VEX AIM Coding Robot over Wi-Fi. These connection methods are required before you can use the WebSocket library to run Python code remotely from your own device.
You can either connect directly to the robot using its Access Point mode, or have the robot join an existing Wi-Fi network shared with your computer. Once connected, you’ll be ready to establish a WebSocket connection.
