Conditions:
- There are no double or triple pins protruding from the parts that they connect;
- The motors are attached to the robot on at least two points. The points where the motor can be attached at are below, above and behind;
- There are no axles bearing weight. Axles have the sole utility of translating or preventing motion of parts. Axles are NOT used for attaching sensors or other constructions.
- Do not use light grip pins on constructions that are not meant to spin.
- Shake the robot up a bit. No part of it should wiggle in any way.
Courses and lessons with this Tutorial
This Tutorial is used in the following courses and lessons
Python with LEGO Mindstorms EV3 - Level 2
In the second level of Python for EV3 robots, students learn in-depth the touch sensor. The sensor is used as an input device for manual control of machines, as well as a sensor for autonomous robots. In a pair of lessons, students build a control panel for the grabber and the movement of a crane. Programming wise, students learn how to fork code with "if-else" constructions, how to create conditional and forever loops with "while" and how to negate conditions with "not" operator. In the end of the lesson, robots can detect obstacles and avoid them, so that they traverse a simple labyrinth.

Lesson 6 - Automated vacuum cleaner
Introduction
Today we will create a robot that will behave like an automated vacuum cleaner!
One of the most annoying household chores an adult could have is cleaning their home. Which is why engineers invented the Roomba! And we're not talking about the dance, but rather a robotized home vacuum cleaner.
