Introduction. Go forward and turn around.
In this video I am building the five minute robot from LEGO Mindstorms and I am doing a short introduction on how to make the robot move forward and turn around. Throught this series I will be using mostly NXT-G as a programming environment.

Motor Block vs. Move Block in LEGO Mindstorms NXT-G
If you look at the properties of the move block and the motor block LEGO Mindstorms NXT, you will see that they have much in common. Still they have several differences. You should be aware of these differences in order to choose the appropriate block for your needs.

How to follow a line with two light/color sensors (revised for EV3)
This video lesson is a revised version of Episode #1. Matt Gipson requested it in a comment. Using the EV3-G software we have developed a very simple program for following a line with two LEGO MINDSTORMS color/light sensors.

Robotics Game of Life introduction
Robotics Game of Life – that’s the name of our new scientific journey. We are organizing a 14-sessions course (1 session weekly). The idea of the course is to develop a solution to the Conway Game of Life where the robots would actually play the game. Students will construct the robots by instructions and lots of imagination. Initial programs will be provided by us and modified by students.

VEX EDR Intro. Register and download the RobotC software
To control the VEX Cortex controller we must use a software. In this episode we would download the software from the VEX site. Strange thing is that you must select your region correctly even if you are not in this region

Tetrix Gamepads. Simple program for moving the robot with the gamepads
In this tutorial, we would build a simple program for controlling the Tetrix robot motors with the GamePads. We use the stick and when the stick is pushed forward the motors move forward. When it is pushed backwards the robot moves backwards.

Program for the EV3 tug of war with touch sensors
This is an example program for tug of war with two touch sensors. The game can be played with almost any robot, so we used: https://www.fllcasts.com/materials/265-five-minute-bot, because it is the simplest. You have to attach two touch sensors at ports 1 and 4, preferably with long cables. You can also add a color sensor to port 3, which will detect when to end the game, although this is not required. The game is simple, two human players click the touch sensors as fast as they can. The robot moves in the direction of the one that clicks the fastest and the goal is to bring it to your finish line.
The program teaches about counters and flags. A big part of it is the good names of variables and loops and the addition to plenty of comments, from which students can learn how to form their program.

How to move on an FLL competition field with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime without sensors
In this video tutorial we start with the basic of the basic, eg. how to move. We use the block from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Word Blocks software. It is based on Scratch. The goal of the tutorial is to demonstrate how we can move and to teach something very important - the robot moves inaccurately
