Building Instructions -

This instruction is for the third configuration of the Solid Works File It shows an assembly inside an assembly.

Here is how the instruction looks like in the SolidWorks Feature Manager

Calix, from latin, means cup. Calix is made to carry an object while following a black line. Most people, when they think of robotics, they think of how the robots may help them at home, with the chores that no one wants to do. This robot is a simple version of this. You can give it a cup in the kitchen and then it will deliver it to the end of the black line! The robot uses two SPIKE Prime medium motors to move and a color sensor to follow a line. At the front it has Large motor with a gear system that lowers and rises the "cup".

As you might have seen, recently all the cool kids build tensegrity structures. So we decided to make one for those of you who have a Spike prime set and want to build one themselves! In addition this tensegrity structure requires only parts from the set, which means you don't need to tie any strings on beams or other parts!

At the top of the structure we have two fully functional motors! Can you make something cool with them?

Tohuru, from Maori, means owl.

Tohuru is a SPIKE Prime robot, that holds onto an edge and looks at the nearest object! It uses two medium motors to grip an edge between two wheels. In addition it has a head made out of an ultrasonic sensor, attached to a large motor, which allows it to turn 360 degrees! And most importantly, it looks like an Owl!

Big Wheelster, as his name suggests, is a robot with a big wheel! The Big Wheel is made out of the SPIKE Prime Baseplates. The robot also has an interesting steering mechanism! At the front we have added a touch sensor, to detect an obstacle and hopefully avoid it.

This incredibly compact SPIKE Prime Box Robot is designed for competitions such as the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) and World Robot Olympiad (WRO). Named Whakatae, derived from the Māori word "whakataetae," meaning "competitive," this robot measures 17 LEGO units in length and 15 LEGO units in width. It features two color sensors in front of the wheels for precise alignment, two large motors for movement, and two medium motors for attachments.

The best part? You can build this SPIKE Prime Box Robot using just the Base Set, an additional large motor, and a color sensor!

Swing game is a SPIKE Prime robot that is a game played by two people. The goal of the game is for both LEGO people to reach the center of the swing, without it tipping over on either side. The LEGO poeple are placed on motors, connected to two technic gear racks, that move along the swing. The motors are moved by two controllers, one using a color sensor and one using a Large motor. If one of the LEGO people moves too far without the other doing the same, the swing will tip and game over! Good luck and have fun!

Larvy is a SPIKE Prime robot, that moves like a larva or caterpillar. The robot has a Large motor, that contracts and expands it! Using the two medium motors, it turns 4 tyres to their side and upright whenever it wants, so that it can move forward!

A program for the robot can be found here: Program for Larvy - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot

Motivated by the five-minute robot, this robot has its own rails!

 

Varasto from Finnish means warehouse.

This is a simple warehouse robot made to hold and drag objects. It uses two Large motors to move around and one medium motor for a grabber. The grabber is at the front of the robot and consists of two double angular lift-arms that are each connected to a gear, which allows them to function like a grabber.

Chronos means time in Greek.

What's the time? Time to build a cool robot! This robot is made to look like a clock. The two hands are each connected to a motor and are positioned between the two motors. This makes it simple to build, while also being effective in showing how a clock works.

An example program moving the seconds and minutes hands of the clock can be found here.

An example program designed to teach children to read the clock can be found here.

Magazzino from italian means warehouse.

This robot is made to drag and hold on objects. It uses two Large motors to move around and one medium motor for a grabber. The grabber is at the front of the robot and consists of two "hands" that are each connected to two gears, which connect to the medium motor allowing them to function like a grabber.

This box is meant to be used in missions. The long body of this box makes it easy to grab with a large variety of attachments.

This is a robot, designed to easily lift a cup, while still holding it upright. The robot uses one motor attached to the brick to lift the cup to any angle you want. The cup we have added is purely cosmetic, but with a few adjustments, you can make it lift real cups. Be careful around liquids though!

Luna 3 comes from the soviet spaceship with the same name, that was the first to take a picture of the far side of the moon.

This robot is made to hold a phone, that can be used as a camera to take a picture of the far side of the moon. The robot is pretty simple, it uses two large EV3 motors to move around and also has a stand for the phone. The stand is made to work with most phones, but you can easily modify it to work with any camera.

This robot is made to serve the best tea in the whole continent! It is based on the Easy Bot from EV3. As its predecessor it is based on LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It uses two large motors to move around. The best part of the robot is the cup holder, that has a cool cup that shows the KISS principle.

This is a module containing two sets of three legs to make the ideal hexapod insect! The two sets are each powered by a large EV3 motor which are connected in various ways to the three legs to move them like a real bug! You can combine this module with others to build a bug robot.

This is a steering mechanism made for LEGO Mindstorms EV3, which uses the Technic steering link to steer two wheels. To move, the mechanism uses a medium motor. This module can be combined with others to create a cool steering robot.
