These are a couple of structured examples and tutorials of how the missions for FIRST LEGO League 2014 Word class competition could be accomplished. We've gathered recordings and explanations from which students and teacher can learn a lot. There are missions and attachment for rubber bands, lifting with rubber bands, throwing and other interesting and challenging robotics missions from the competition.
So far you have programmed the robot to turn its wheels and it has always known when the correct number of rotations have been executed. Do you know how the robot knows it has turned its wheels enough number of rotations?
We love tanks. You love tanks. Everybody loves tanks. Well, not exactly - more like everybody loves machines with chain treads because they are interesting, not that common, very easy to build and could tackle a lot of obstacles.
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.
Building instructions for a LEGO Truck. The robot is presented as an Ammo Truck but it can be used for transporting various other objects, too. The construction has a rear drive with each of the rear wheels driven by a Large Lego Motor. The front wheels steer using a Medium Lego Motor. The Brick is placed at the front of the construction which gives the opportunity to easily attach different sensors, based on the task.
Activate the drop attachment with a python program
So far we know how to make a turn in an arc, just like the real cars do.
Today we will see what other options our robots have for turning.
Another example for a quick pinless attachment build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robots.
