Developed with LEGO Education SPIKE App Word Blocks this program is used to accomplish the Power Switch mission model with a Front attachment placed on Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions.
In this program we demonstrate how to program a SPIKE robot to align to а line with the aid of two color sensors. Make sure the line is big enough for the sensor to detect it. For this program to work, the sensors must be placed in front of the wheels.
This program was intended for and tested on the Gazon robot
This tutorial explains the use of motion and light/color sensors to accomplish a complex mission split into three parts. It gets into detail about how we keep a straight line with the motion sensor, follow a line with the color sensors, and transition between different parts of the program by aligning and detecting lines with the sensor. The goal is to get to a reliable and consistent behavior of the robot. On top of that, it is configurable, as we've left a few parameters that could be set to configure the behavior for a specific robot, venue, lighting, battery level, and wheels friction.
This is a recording of a completely perfect, 10 out of 10 accomplishment of a two-part mission - Train tracks, from the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Cargo Connect competition. Due to the proper use of motion and color/light sensors, the robot is 100% consistent and reliable for a non-trivial mission. Even when the robot makes a mistake, it auto-corrects and compensates for this mistake.
The Chain Monster is one of the coolest Box Robots that we've built. But what is a robot without attachments that can accomplish missions? These here are 3D building instructions demonstrating how the frame for the robot could be built. We've discussed frames in the Box Robots courses for EV3. Take a look at this one. See if it can inspire you to build robots and attachments in certain way to achieve consistent and reliable robot behavior.
In this video tutorial we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2022 missions called Wind Turbine, Television and Rechargeable Battery. We demonstrate how 3 missions could be accomplished in the single run and in the same time with a single attachment.
"Muni" is short for mountain unicycles - Munis.
This robot is designed to resemble a clown on a unicycle. It uses a large technic gear ring to move forward and backward. On top of the robot is a force sensor, disguised as a clown. You can program it so that when you touch its head, the robot starts!
A FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 attachment for the MiniBox Robot.
This attachment is designed to detach, once it completes its purpose. Due to the way, the attachment is left on the mission model, it slides from, creating distance between itself and the mission model, therefore meeting the requirement that no attachment should be touching the mission model at the end of the competition. This is done, so that the team loses less time switching attachments in the base, lowering the chance of human error during the competition.
The robot is equipped with two motors, one for each side. As a result, whenever the robot turns, it always follows an arc path. The size and radius of this arc can vary depending on the turn.
