Building Instructions

This robot was designed as an example for use on simple line-following fields. It is ideal for beginner and intermediate levels of line-following competitions.

This attachment is designed to detach, once it completes its purpose. This is done, so that the team loses less time switching attachments in the base, lowering the chance of human error during the competition.

This attachment is accomplishing four missions and partly two more mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It solve mission 1 - 3D CINEMA, mission 2 - Theater Scene Change, mission 5 - Augmented Reality Statue and mission 9 - Movie set. It partially solves mission 14 - Audience delivery and mission 15 - Expert delivery by taking Sam the Stage Manager to the base and delivering it to the movie set area.

This is an attachment for Kufar - Easy SPIKE Prime out-of-box robot.It collects Izzy using a rubber band mechanism, solves the M13 Craft Creator with a hook and M12 Virtual Reality Artist using a gear that goes into the mission model.

This attachment is accomplishing four missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It solve mission 3 - Immersive Experience. It partially solves mission 14 - Audience delivery and mission 15 - Expert delivery by delivering Izzy the Skateboarder to the Skate Park and Emily the Visual Effects Director in Cinema.

In this attachment two knob wheels "(32072 ) Technic Gear 4 Knob" engage at 90 degrees angle. One of the knob wheels is a part of the robot and the other is a part of a pinless active attachment. The purpose of this attachment is to demonstrate How NOT to build attachments. 

Build the attachment and experiment. See for yourself how it "jumps" up and down when the knob wheels are rotating and you hold the lever by hand.

This is a simple pinless active attachment for the SUV Box Robot.

In this attachment we use "(32498) Technic Gear 36 Tooth Double Bevel". There are four pins added to the wheel and it it this pins that engage with the "(32072 ) Technic Gear 4 Knob". The more important thing is that the knob wheel and the gear wheel are parallel to each other.

While the motor rotates the attachment has 4 points of contact (instead of one or two when two Knob Wheels are in contact) with the robot knob wheel. There are no forces that drive the attachment to jump and lose engagement with the robot.

This attachment is designed to be thrown back to the base, with the lifted model it collected, before the robot returns, so the team can start loading the model to the next attachment, while the robot is still moving. This is done, so that the team loses less time switching attachments in the base, lowering the chance of human error during the competition.

Introducing Kufar! In Bulgarian, Kufar means "suitcase," and just like a suitcase, this robot is easy to "pack" with different attachments for each task.

Unlike traditional box robots, Kufar is an "out-of-box" design, enabling fast, easy attachment swaps. This flexibility allows teams to build a new chassis with customized attachments for each run, making transitions quick but requiring more parts and careful handling due to its gear transmission, which can sometimes cause gear slippage or play.

To improve precision, Kufar’s gear transmission is optimized for lower speeds. Kufar also includes a color sensor to detect specific colored bricks on attachments and a force sensor to start corresponding programs. With two motors for movement and one for attachments, Kufar is compact, efficient, and easy to handle, especially with its sturdy top handle.

We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this innovative concept and hope you find it equally fun and inspiring!

Luly is a new STEAM competition robot from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime. We would use in some of the courses. This version of Luly have some light shields to protect the color sensor from ambient light. Check out the courses below and see how Luly is used to complete in a competition.
