These are building instruction for a working automatic catapult with a motor and a touch sensor.

LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot designed for a Folk Race competition. This robot has three Ultrasonic Sensors. Follow the building instructions and at the end, you would have a very basic robot with tank treads that you could directly use. 

Lintu means bird in finnish.

The robot is made to resemble a Kiwi bird, an endangered species of flightless birds, found only in New Zealand.

Lintu uses two large motors as legs. They are placed at an angle so that they resemble the strange posture of the kiwi bird.

The beak of the robot uses an interesting mechanism to open and close utilizing two technic steering links and a medium motor. For eyes, the robot uses an Ultrasonic sensor.

Accomplish three FIRST LEGO League missions at once. This is an interesting Large multi-purpose FLL attachment for a box robot that could be used to accomplish a number of missions with a single exit of the field base. 

Building instructions for constructing a simple LEGO Model that has red, green, blue and yellow beams. This makes it perfect for operating robots through color code.

Hrutur, from Icelandic, means Ram.

The robot is made to resemble a Ram. Its main focus are the gears, which make it go faster so that it can ram harder. It uses two Large EV3 motors to power the gear systems. At the front it has an Ultrasonic sensor for aesthetic purposes, which you can use however you like.

The robot is used in Lesson 6 for Level D1.

In all building instructions for LEGO robots it is important to have the motors attached to the brick in more than one place. In the following construction, there is a beam connecting the two motors which has exactly this purpose. It makes the construction much more stable. Try removing this beam for example and see what will happen. Would the robot be able to move?

Many different types of wheels could be used. Both NXT and EV3 or from other LEGO technic series.

This is a LEGO Mindstorms Boxing robot. The inspiration story goes like this "One day we though - Let's play SUMO at this robotics demonstration, but let's make it more interesting. Let's play sumo with Humanoid Robots". We decided to build a boxing robot. The goal of the robot is to press the touch sensor on the other robot and it could be very fun. Perfect robot for demonstration. It is controlled by a joystick using the Bluetooth connection.

Here are the joystick and the programs for the joystick and the robots.

"You need to step on three points to be stable". This is something you could directly see after building this marvellous, 270+ steps, extremely interesting Motorcycle with a side cart. Yes, we are proud of it. The robot is suitable for using it at home. The instructions for building it contain more than 270+ steps so it is a test for endurance, concentration, passion. The same way driving a motorcycle is. 

Or you could just step into the cart, drive along and enjoy the view while someone else is building the robot. Like a sibling or a parent.  

Join the course A robot a "day" keeps the questions awake where we will further discuss the motorcycles, how to build them and what tasks to accomplish with them.

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.

The GorillaBot walks on its two arms, using two large motors as forearms. It also has this awesome head, which actually is pretty useless as an ultrasonic sensor, unless you lift its eyebrows.

A turtle robot with 2 sensors- ultrasonic and gyro, capable of following her course and navigating through anything. Just don't annoy it, or it will hide in its shell or even come and bite you.

Background

Space stations allow us to learn about and even practice living in space, but improved technology and new international partners require modules to be easily interchangeable.

Mission

The robot needs to remove and insert modules among the habitation hub’s portholes.

Scores

• Move the cone module completely into the base: 16
• Insert the tube module into the habitation hub port, west side: 16
• Transfer/insert the docking module into the habitation hub port, east side: 14
• Possible scores: 0, 16, 32, 46

Scoring Requirements

• Results must be visible at the end of the match.
• Inserted modules must not be touching anything except the habitation hub. > Needs to be visible at the end of the match.

We've built a box robot chassis that could easily be extended with attachments for FIRST Technical Challenge competition.

If you ever felt that FIRST Technical Challenge is difficult and you don't know where to start from, building this Tetrix robot is the first thing that you could do. You would have 4 motors, plenty of space for attachments and good access to the phone.

The robot is built from a Tetrix Set without additional parts. It's a winning robot in just 109 steps 

Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Active attachment for changing gear orientations

This is Cooley, and, it, is, coooooool. It got all the stuff the cool kids have - two motors at the top, two at the bottom, two wheels on the side and it is slim. Build a few attachments for it and take it on a ride during FIRST LEGO League competition

Maze Runners are one of the very popular robotics competitions. But there are a lot of limits that the robots must comply with. Like the size of the robot. 

This here are building instructions for a very small maze runner robot, build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It uses two tires that are technic and not Mindstorms simply because none of the Mindstorms tires fit the size limit. 

The robot has an Ultrasonic sensor and a Gyro sensor at the top. 

This module is meant to be used in EV3 Kinesthetic and Memory Game and is attached to the base of the robot. This module uses the gyro sensor to detect when it is hit, by observing the angular rate.

These are building instructions for a LEGO WeDo 2.0 Small Creatuer

This attachment accomplishes the Into Orbit Space Walk Emergency mission from the FIRST LEGO League Into Orbit 2017-2018 competitions. The base robot is the SUV Competition Box Robot from LEGO Mindstorms EV3.

The program for this attachment is at Programs/w415dz-fll-2018-attachment-to-accomplish-the-into-orbit-space-walk-emergency-07-robot-game-missions-program.

Soon we would publish and a video of how the attachment works.
