Building instructions for the second module of the Ugbroid robot - the Base.
Introducing Kufar! In Bulgarian, Kufar means "suitcase," and just like a suitcase, this robot is easy to "pack" with different attachments for each task.
Unlike traditional box robots, Kufar is an "out-of-box" design, enabling fast, easy attachment swaps. This flexibility allows teams to build a new chassis with customized attachments for each run, making transitions quick but requiring more parts and careful handling due to its gear transmission, which can sometimes cause gear slippage or play.
To improve precision, Kufar’s gear transmission is optimized for lower speeds. Kufar also includes a color sensor to detect specific colored bricks on attachments and a force sensor to start corresponding programs. With two motors for movement and one for attachments, Kufar is compact, efficient, and easy to handle, especially with its sturdy top handle.
We thoroughly enjoyed exploring this innovative concept and hope you find it equally fun and inspiring!
In Finnish, "kuhmu" means "bump."
This robot was designed to resemble a bumper car and to teach a very important lesson about inertia and the center of mass! Its hub is attached pinlessly to the construction, allowing you to move it around and experiment with the robot's center of mass. The robot moves using two wheels attached to two medium motors. It also has a force sensor in front to detect when it bumps into something!
In Spanish, "huracán" means "hurricane."
This robot is designed to resemble a hurricane-type carnival ride. It has two seats for LEGO minifigs, each attached using a flexible hose part. The robot spins them around using a medium motor. This can be controlled using a force sensor, which looks like a clown and stays at a safe distance from the ride!
In Scottish Celtic, "asal" means "donkey."
The robot is designed to resemble a beast of burden. It moves with its four legs, which are connected in pairs to motors on the left and right sides. On its back, it has a platform connected to a force sensor, which can be used to measure if the robot is carrying too much cargo.
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 an attachment for the Kriket Box robot that accomplishes multiple missions. The missions are connected with Push and Collect actions and are from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED competition. The attachment is a little different than the recording because we improved it a little after that
This attachment is a great example for a precise drop attachment. It is designed for the Kriket Box Robot and accomplishes the M14 Toy Factory mission from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED competition.

In Dutch, "muur" means "wall."
This robot is designed to have a wall in front of it to clear obstacles, which is where its name comes from. Can you make your own wall?
In Maltese, "Ikkomunika" means "to communicate."
This simple robot is powered by two medium motors. Its controller is tilted for easier screen communication. However, the back two wheels seem to have a problem. Can you figure out what it is?
These are instructions on how to build the:

This is a module that is made to look like a mantis' pincers and head. The pincers are powered by a medium motor and the head has an ultrasonic sensor for eyes. This module is used in Mantissa, a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 mantis 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.
