A FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 attachment for the MiniBox Robot.
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 designed to keep the model from coming undone when dropped from a higher distance. It was done so that the robot could use a higher-position attachment to deliver the model while using lower-placed attachments to solve other missions in the same run.

This attachment uses rubber parts to compensate for the lack of precision in positioning the robot near the mission model. That was needed since at the time that this attachment was used, the robot had moved a long distance since its last aligning at a wall or other mission models.
This incredibly compact SPIKE Prime Box Robot is made for competitions like FIRST LEGO League (FLL) and World Robotics Olympiad (WRO). Whakatae (from Maori's word "whakataetae", which means "competitive") is long 17 LEGO units and is with a width of 15 LEGO units. In front of the wheels it has two color sensors which it uses to align. Whakatae also has two Large motors for moving and has two medium motors for attachments!
It's has "V2" in its name, because it's the second version of Whakatae - LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Competition Box robot. The difference between the two is that the first one can be built with only a Large Motor and a Color sensor in addition to the Base set, while this one needs an additional ball bearing. This provides this robot with a lot more stability and can be seen as a true upgrade to the first version.
This attachment accomplishes three missions from the FIRST LEGO League MASTERPIECE. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It accomplishes Mission 10 - Sound Mixer. It also partially accomplishes Mission 14 - Audience Delivery.

The offset beam creates a hook-like motion when rotating the gear, making "hooking" in loops an easy task.
This construction is ment as a addition to the base line following robot with exposed sensor.

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 MiniBox box robot features a unique design with three perpendicularly rotating gearwheels, which simplifies the attachment design process. This setup allows teams to easily create and connect attachments on multiple sides, making it quick to adjust the robot for various tasks.
Its structure includes walls with a maximum attachable surface area, offering flexibility in attachment placement. This extensive surface allows for secure connections, so teams can experiment with different attachment configurations.
The MiniBox’s compact size is best suited for smaller, lightweight attachments. When working with larger attachments, its balance and stability can be affected, limiting its effectiveness in tasks that require more substantial setups.
This attachment is accomplishing two missions and partly two more missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It solves mission 6 - Music concert lights and sounds and mission 7 - Hologram Performance. It partially solves mission 14 - Audience delivery and mission 15 - Expert delivery by delivering Noah the Sound Engineer to the Music Concert area.
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.
The story goes like this. Two engineers meet at a bar (or on discord during the pandemic) discussing which robot to use for this year's FIRST LEGO League 2020 Replay Solution and Review with explanations. They started their cameras, had a hot Carolina Reaper, had an argument, hugged each other, and decided to build Gazon, and use this new robot for the competition. So here it is. Small, 4 motors, 2 color sensors, stable, light.
This attachment is accomplishing three missions from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024. It is for the Chain Monster Robot. It solve mission 8 - Rolling camera, mission 12 - Virtual reality artist and mission 13 - Craft creator.
