This video tutorial demonstrates an attachment that flips a mission model. The mission model is attached to the field, but it contains a lever. This lever must be flipped from one side to the other. There is a switch. We use a pinless active attachment with gear wheels, and you can see how this works in the tutorial. There is no use of sensors as we don't need them. We will leave the alignment and positioning for some other tutorials.

This video tutorial demonstrates the consistency and reliability of the active attachment that pushes the two mission models. The goal is to use both the attachment and the robot to push the mission model and move the truck and the plane after the blue lines.

In this video tutorial, we push two of the mission models with a pinless active attachment with gears. The goal is to push the mission models after the blue lines. This attachment is interesting as it demonstrates a non-straightforward idea of how we can push the mission models. We explain the Scratch program and how we use the motion sensors - you will learn how to turn to a specific angle by using the motion sensor.

This is a 10 out of 10 video tutorial that demonstrates the consistency and reliability of the robot that accomplishes the Unlock Cargo Plane mission. The attachment is an active attachment with gear wheels. It has a single lever constructed from 2 beans and we use this attachment to push on the mission model.

In this video tutorial, we demonstrate how to release the cargo of a mission model. This mission model is an Airplane. We have to push a lever down to release it. We use an active attachment with a gear wheel.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial that demonstrates the consistency and reliability of the robot to complete the Unused capacity mission. In this mission, we do not need any guidance to push the model as it is near the west side where it should arrive.

In this video tutorial we accomplish the Unused Capacity mission by pushing the mission model outside of the field in the area where we are allowed to touch the robot. We deliver the mission model to the side of the field. Before delivering, we must of course reach it and that's not always easy.

This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial demonstrating the consistency and reliability of a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot when the robot delivers a mission model to a specific position on the field.

In this video tutorial we deliver the Innovation project model from base to the cargo connect marker on the field. The goal of the mission is to deliver. The mission model is assembled before that.

Every time we start the robot we want to start from the same place, not only in terms of where we are on the field but also in terms of how are the motors rotate. The motors have an internal sensor for detecting the rotation. Because of this they know how rotated they are. It is a very good practice to always reset the motors before we start a competition run especially at FIRST LEGO League or World Robot Olympiad competitions

In this video tutorial we take a next step in programming reliable and consistent robots and this is to learn how to stop at a second intersection. We need this because most of the time when we want to reach a mission model on a robotics competition field, the model will be located away from us and we must use all kind of technique to reach it. In this tutorial - we stop at a second intersection.

In this video tutorial we demonstrate a really important concept for FIRST LEGO League competitions - you position the robot on the field with depending on timers and rotations. The issue with moving the robot for 10 seconds and then stopping is that every time it is in a different location. Same for rotations. The wheels will slip, the battery will change, something will happen and the robot will not be in the same place every time. This is not consistent and reliable.

In this video tutorial we show how you can build robots that position on the field consistently and reliably by following and line and then aligning to a line. We also demonstrate the concept of "double align" which is quite powerful and even if there were some mistakes they will be handled.

This is one of the last tutorials in the LEGO Education SPIKE Prime programming for Competitions course and it demonstrates what we've all been waiting for - how to reach a mission model from base in a reliable and consistent way when the mission model is on the other end of the field. Naturally what we use are all the different concepts that we've learned in the course and the tutorial is more advanced than the other so if anything is not clear take a look also at the different tutorials an concepts in the course.

In this video we are also focusing on lifting a loop as a common mission on robotics competitions like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. We demonstrated an attachment for lifting a loop. The tutorial uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

This tutorial in an animated demonstration of how a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot could turn precisely at 90 degrees using the Motion Sensor. The goal of the task is to download the program and rotate at exactly 90 degrees. Because of this precise rotation it is easy to know where your robot is on the field and to program the robot to perform in a reproducible way. To download the program check out the courses in which the tutorial is used.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how a loops mission could be accomplished with a Push/Pull Attachment. The robot attachment could be adapted to other missions at FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and other robotics competitions that require push/pull. The principle is the same. The tutorial uses Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

This tutorial demonstrates how a robot moves forward in a straight line with the use of the LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Motion sensor. While the robot is moving we push on the robot at the back, simulating that "something has happened" and the robot then again returns back to the moving straight. To download the program check out the courses in which the tutorial is used.

This video is about a lever that should be pushed and this lever is connected to an axle. This means the lever should rotate. It is a common mission on robotics competitions like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The inspiration for this mission is the FLL 2012 Senior Solutions Oven mission. The tutorial uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

In this tutorial we would should you how to accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2019-2020 Mission called Elevator. We are using the Whakatae - LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Competition Box robot

Lifting a loop is one of the most common missions in different robotics competitions. In this video we demonstrate how we could do "Vertical lift". It is suitable for precise lifting especially when the mission model requires you to lift straight up. The robot attachment could be adapted to other missions at FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and other robotics competitions that require push/pull. The principle is the same. The tutorial uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

In this tutorial we demonstrate how a Drop Mission could be accomplished with a Drop Attachment. The robot attachment could be adapted to other drop missions in FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad and other robotics competitions. The principle is the same. The tutorial uses Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

Raw footage of the mission. Might upload a more polished version soon

This tutorial demonstrates how a robot could align to a black line. The code for the program is available in the course. Aligning to black lines is popular at robotics competitions like FIRST LEGO League as it is the primary way to know where you are on the field and to develop a program that is reproducible. The attachment uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.

We call active attachments those that are powered with a motor. This one is in the the mission of lifting levers which is common at robotics competitions like FIRST LEGO League/World Robotics Olympiad. The attachment uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.
