The Swing Game is a SPIKE Prime robot designed as a two-player game. The goal is for both LEGO figures to reach the center of the swing without tipping it over to either side. Each LEGO figure is mounted on a motor connected to a Technic gear rack, allowing it to move along the swing. The motors are controlled separately—one by a color sensor and the other by a Large Motor. If one player moves too far ahead without the other keeping up, the swing will tip... and it’s game over! Good luck, and have fun!

Interesting and useful attachment for dropping a LEGO human at a specific location. It uses a lever and a gear wheel. When the lever is pressed the wheel rotates.

The attachment is constructed from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 sets.

A similar LEGO attachment the previous once, but this one is with a different gear ratio. Again using a frame, two axles and two gears you can change the direction of the motion.  

This attachment is accomplishing three missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023. It is for the Chain Monster robot

These are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 demonstration model. In the tutorial, we are using it to demonstrate the working and relations of LEGO Gears.

This is the attachment to accomplish Fll 2019 M06 mission with the Whakatae. You can see how to attach the attachment to the robot in this tutorial to do.

This is the robot that we use to demonstrate a solution for competition. This is a Post season solution. We never release any solutions during the season as this will have a negative impact on the competition. But after the competition we try to make a review and to see how we could have accomplish it. Our goal is to be better for next year.

This robot is quite powerful. The attachment mechanism on the front is one of a kind as it can do several things with a single motor: it can lift, it can unlock, it can grab. All of this thanks to the unique mechanism of gears

This is a heavy lifting attachment and it can lift mission models vertically. It is build entirely from LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 parts. This is one of the more complex and interesting attachments that we demonstrate in the course and it show how a few gear wheels and levers could be used to change the motion from circular to linear. This is powerful concept that could be very valuable during FIRST LEGO League competitions.

If you take a look at the videos for this attachment you will see a nice idea on taking the track and the ambulance. These two vehicles from the FIRST LEGO League 2013 competition had to be collected and returned back to base.

Built from LEGO Mindstorms EV3 parts. 

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms Catapult Motor and Touch Sensor that are used for triggers for firing objects

This attachment was intended for and tested on the Gazon, LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot. It is meant to help the robot complete the 5th mission of the FLL Cargo Connect competition.

Advanced LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Construction. It has two rear motors and it could rotate the whole from part. It has 4 wheels and is kind of like unique in the Mindstorms world.

Building instructions are not very easy and you need LEGO Education Core and Extension Sets - 45544 and 45560. 

Apart from being advanced, it is also quite fun to try to build.

This attachment was intended for and tested on the Gazon, LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot. It is meant to help the robot complete the 3rd mission of the FLL Cargo Connect competition.

We use this attachment to demonstrate the principle of an active attachment. This is an attachment activated from the motor. It has one level attached to it. It could be reused. The attachment transfers power from the motor to the end of the lever and we can accomplish missions like the Power Switch mission from the FLLCasts Off-season mission models.

This attachment is accomplishing three missions and partly two more missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023. It is for the Chain Monster robot

This reusable attachment could easily be placed on the side of a LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor robot and accomplish different missions that require the robot to interact with mission models. It uses gear wheels.

This attachment is accomplishing three missions and partly one more mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023. It is for the Chain Monster robot. It solve mission 6 - HYBRID CAR, mission 14 - TOY FACTORY and mission 15 - RECHARGEABLE BATTERY. It partially solves mission 2 - OIL PLATFORM.

This is the initial construction of a catapult. The base on which we will place the rest of the robot. The goal of this construction is to give the catapult the ability to rotate.

This is an active attachment with gears built from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robotics set. The goal is to do a precise drop. The attachment could be used for both cargo items.
