An awesome ski-jet robot, steering with a medium motor and powered by a single large motor. It also has a pair of inclined treads, making it especially well-suited for the harsh winter terrain.
*There is a mistake in this robot you will have to find. How would you make it work?
This is an 8 bar lifting robot. Way should I build this instead of Roberto bot you ask? Because it is... well... it lift thing straight up, it lift 'em higher, it's more beautiful than Roberto and is more bad ass looking than 4 bar lifting mechanism. OOoohhh, and one more thing it may use the same program as Roberto Bot With Four Bars Lifting Mechanism.
The program si at programs/hb5rj8-pesho-bot-with-two-bars-lifting-mechanism-controls-with-modkit.
Do you have some awesome remote controlled racer cars? Have you ever wanted to see which one is faster? Or maybe having a speed race with your homies. You can do all that and much more with this amazing LEGO Mindstorms EV3 radar robot. It will also ring police sirens when you break the speed limit, just know that you're declared WANTED!
An example program for using this robot could be found here.
Building instructions for the Formula 1 Racing Car, built with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It can turn with the help of a small motor and is driven by two large ones.

A LEGO door with a touch sensor that knows when it's open. It has a stopper and even makes the familiar noise of a creaky door. You can use it by its own or put it in a model of a house.
A nice little robot that can tell if there is anything on top of it. It only uses one touch sensor. The idea of the robot is to be used in classes with students to explore different interesting security options. This robot in particular could detect when the object placed on it gets "stollen". Have you ever watched Indiana Jones? :)
A phone holder that rings an alarm when the phone is picked up. It is a plate, lying on a rubber wheel, that changes its height, based on the weight of the object placed on top. The color sensor detects these changes and rings the alarm. With some fine tuning, this robot can even act as a weighing machine.
This is a simple chassis that uses two motors to control the robot and two omni wheels at the back for greater maneuverability. It also have low center of the mass which makes it more stable for higher attachments.
The program for this robot is at programs/uxgw6b-roberto-bot-chassis-controls-with-modkit
Whitiki comes from Maori and means Belt.
The robot uses a medium motor to run the belt and a color sensor to identify the color of the ball coming in. There are 56 chain pieces in the robot.
These are modules for you to create your own robot that sorts plastic trash as used in C2. The two modules are not connected anywhere, they are just placed together so you have an easier time imagining the robot.
This robot is robot based on Roberto Chassis. It is equiped with a pushing rack. You can add something to the rack so it can do some other jobs.
The program for this robot is at programs/ajk7i1-roberto-with-rack-for-pushing-to-the-left-and-right-side-vex-iq-robot.
This construction demonstrates one way of using а rack with a gear wheel. It allows to turn circular motion in to a liniar one.
Mintonet (engl. Mintonette) comes from the name of the first iteration of volleyball.
The robot can move only forward and backward, without turning, with the help of a large EV3 motor. Another large motor is used to shoot. The robot uses an EV3 ultrasonic sensor to detect its partner and throw a ball at it.
Mintonette comes from the first iteration of Volleyball with the same name.
The robot uses two EV3 Touch sensors to control the turret left and right. It uses the EV3 Color sensor to trigger the shooting mechanism, which consists of an EV3 Large motor which pulls a lever to shoot a ball.
Roberto is one handed robot with four bars mehanizm. He is more durable then Pesho.
This robot is based on Roberto Chassis.
Program for this robot available here.
Piscis from Latin means fish.
Piscis is a LEGO fish robot which uses a very interesting mechanism for turning. It's tail uses a medium motor to turn left or right. On its end there are two wheels. When the robot turns its tail, those wheels navigate the movement of the robot and it turns. This results in a cool turning mechanism which resembles how fish move.
Piscis also uses a large motor to move forward and backward. The touch sensor at the front helps it sense danger and return quickly back to the reef.
Watch out for the tooth wheels, they bite!
This is a version of the Midas - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Clam robot. The main difference between the two robots is that the motors are flipped.
The robot uses two Large Mindstorms EV3 Motors to open and close its shell. There are four hoses on the top of the shell which can be reshaped to form different shell styles. It also uses two black bent beams for eyebrows that can be moved to change the expression of the clam. A Castor Ball is used to represent its pearl.
Umjaho - from the language of the Zulu tribe. It means "competition"
This LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot has three sensors - touch, color and ultrasonic. When the touch sensor is pressed the robot starts moving. The color sensor is used for following lines and the ultrasonic sensor is used to detect any robots in front of the robot.
Dwell is a car built with a LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 set. It uses the medium motor for powering the back wheel and one more medium motor for rotating the front wheels and thus turning. Of course, there is a differential at the back.
