Sweeper - a special vehicle designed for cleaning streets, pavements, and runways. The first sweeper is believed to be a construction patented on September 4, 1849 in the United States by CS Bishop, it was pulled by a horse cart. Until the end of the 19th century, 315 solutions for sweepers have been patented in the USA. The first sweeper with its own drive was patented in the USA in 1868. 

This video tutorial shows how the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Ninja Motorcycle robot works. It's a nice demonstration with the robot moving forward, backward, and slightly to the left and right. 

Here is Turtle - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot that is designed to look like a sea turtle (may look clumsy but it's not). It has two sensors - ultrasonic and gyro, capable of following its course and navigating through anything. It can even get "angry", if you annoy it too much.

Here is Comet. It is a fast LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Car robot that looks like F1 Racing Car. We've especially designed it to be controlled with the remote control to make it extremelly easy to download the program and start playing with the robot. It also has the option to "press the pedal" (increase the speed) with just the remote control. Check it out.

This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M14. METEOROID DEFLECTION. The mission is a simple throw of a ball. But of course the ball should reach a specific mission model and arrive at a specific place. And that's always challenging.

This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M05. EXTRACTION. On every robotics competition we have the challenge to collect, carry and return to base a number of objects. It is just in different way every time.

Parents generally use the same email address for their students. When enrolling into a group it is possible to enroll another user for the same email address. We call this a "brother or sister". Brothers and sisters could share the same email address but they have two different usernames. 

The process of registering a brother or sister is the following

This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M05. EXTRACTION, but compared to one of the other tutorials about this mission, in this specific tutorial we are using Box Robot 1 and a multi-purpose attachment. The attachment is designed for two missions and one of the missions is the Extraction

In this video tutorial we would look at the mission run for M05. EXTRACTION. The mission is to collect and return to base a number of objects that are located on the field. Initially when I first saw the mission I thought it wold be quite challenging to accomplish it, but at the end it is not that difficult. 

In this video tutorial we would look at the mission run for M09. STRENGTH EXERCISE. The mission is to lift a heavy object in the air. And that could a complex mission. It requires to use gear wheel and the attachment should be quite strong. The tutorial contains only the mission run on the field. We accomplish a single mission. 

The M08. AEROBIC EXERCISE is one of the very common types of mission in FIRST LEGO League robotics competitions. I think this pattern of missions was first introduced with the growing abilities of the participating students that were constantly reaching the maximum number of points. So the competition introduced mission that require a lot of time - 20-30 seconds, are time consuming and are complex. They requires a lot of moves. This here is a video tutorial on how it could be accomplished

In this video tutorial we would look at the mission run for M06. SPACE STATION MODULES. The missions is to precisely push a mission model into an opening. In almost any FIRST LEGO League competition there are such missions. The tutorial contains only the mission run on the field. We accomplish a single mission. 

This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M08. AEROBIC EXERCISE. This again is a very interesting mission from the competition. We could learn a lot of basic principles in the field of robotics. This mission requires the robot do to something very fast and many times. 

This video tutorial contains a detailed explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M09. STRENGTH EXERCISE. I could think for a couple of missions in previous years that require lifting a heavy object. Let's see how this mission could be accomplished. 

This video tutorial contains a details explanation on how we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit mission called M06. SPACE STATION MODULES. This again is a very interesting mission from the competition from which we could learn a lot of basic principles in the field of robotics.

Here is Lintu. It is a marvelous LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Animal robot that looks like Kiwi, the famous New Zealand bird. It is quite rare to see a Kiwi bird in person. But fear not, we've prepare a robot that looks almost exactly like the original.

In this video tutorial we would discuss the M13. OBSERVATORY mission from the FIRST LEGO League robotics competition 2018-2019 Into Orbit. This is an easy mission. You can accomplish it by pushing the level with the robot. The challenge is that there is not enough space to move with the robot around the attachment. Let's discuss how we could achieve it. 

This video tutorial is part of the series on how to make your robot 100% precise and accurate. We accomplish the M06. SPACE STATION MODULES mission 9 out of 10 times. The attachment works. Every time the attachment is started in successfully accomplishes the mission. It moves forward and attaches the space station module with the space station.
