In this video tutorial, we carry, deliver and drop a large object with an attachment that is much more stable than the basic. We get out of the base, and we actually carry the model. This attachment is also auto-correcting as it has a guiding beam at the front, and even when the robot makes a mistake, we can successfully accomplish the mission.
This is a video tutorial on accomplishing M12 and M13 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge. We've decided to combine the two missions and approach M12 in a slightly different way - by activating a gear wheel and thus rotate the chicken. The mission is accomplished in almost no time and the result is flawless. The robot is Chain Monster, a powerful LEGO Education Spike Prime robot.
The M07. SPACE WALK EMERGENCY is one of the most interesting missions in FLL the we've even seen. This video tutorial demonstrates a mission run for Mission 07 Emergency Walk in FIRST LEGO League 2018-2019 Into Orbit robotics competition. The tutorial contains only the mission run on the field. We accomplish a single mission.
This is a video tutorial that demonstrates how to accomplish M06 and M07 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge competition. We use the Chain Monster box robot which is a LEGO Education Spike Prime robot equipped with an active attachment with gear wheels, which engage the mission model’s gears to rotate the respective parts. The entire run takes less than 3 seconds, delivering a neat and precise performance.
Here is Comet. It is a fast LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Car robot that looks like F1 Racing Car. We've especially designed it to be controlled with the remote control to make it extremelly easy to download the program and start playing with the robot. It also has the option to "press the pedal" (increase the speed) with just the remote control. Check it out.
This video tutorial focuses on M01, M02, and M14 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge. The Chain Monster box robot (a LEGO Education Spike Prime robot) uses a single attachment to accomplish all three missions in sequence. First, it pushes the mission model, then presses down the next one, and finally collects some mini-figures.
Using everything that we've learned about LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition programming we arrive at the final boss mission - how do we consistently reach a mission model at the other end of the field. Consistently. Every time. We use line following, motion sensor, counting of lines and border alignment. All the different concepts that we've looked at separately are now implemented together.
In this video tutorial we demonstrate how to accomplish M09 of FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge. The robot is Chain Monster - a LEGO Education Spike Prime robot. It pulls the mission model and precisely positions it in the designated area. An interesting aspect is that the robot must rotate to position the loop correctly, so pay close attention when programming it.
Here is Turtle - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot that is designed to look like a sea turtle (may look clumsy but it's not). It has two sensors - ultrasonic and gyro, capable of following its course and navigating through anything. It can even get "angry", if you annoy it too much.
In this video tutorial, the Chain Monster box robot accomplishes three missions in a single run from the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge season. The LEGO Education Spike Prime robot uses an active attachment to collect the mini figures, to push a lever, and to deliver the figures to their designated places. The robot starts from the red base and returns to the blue base, performing all these actions in less than 20 seconds - consistently and reliably.
What if the robot could make a mistake and still accomplish the mission? That is what we demonstrate with this tutorial - a few principles for error tolerance and self-correction. Even though we start the robot from a few different places, we manage to complete the mission with the same program every time. We use the LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot, and we continue directly after the 10 out of 10 tutorial
In this video tutorial we focus on accomplishing a part of M08 of FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE season. The mission is to lift and unlock the lever to make room for rolling the camera. It's a simple action but requires the robot to be stable and accurate. We use the Chain Monster - a powerful LEGO Education Spike Prime robot.
This is a 10 out of 10 video tutorial for the FIRST LEGO League 2020 RePLAY robotics competition and the Treadmill mission. We build a robot with consistent behavior that is able to achieve the mission every time
In this video tutorial, we are accomplishing three missions in a single run from the FIRST LEGO League MASTERPIECE season. We are using our new out-of-box LEGO Education Spike Prime robot, called Kufar. Have you used such robots? No? Well, let's dive deeper in the construction of out-of-box robots and see how convenient and user-friendly they can be. Take one brick with a couple of sensors and let your imagination run wild as you create the most inventive attachments.
The bench mission was a video tutorial that we recorded several times. It was really hard to get it 10 out of 10. The reason was the shear complexity of the mission. There are three things that should happen in this mission at once which was extremely difficult. What you will see in the tutorial is how this attachment behaves
Energy storage mission from FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 is again a two parts mission where we have to drop a few energy units in the mission model, but we also have to pull part of the mission model. In this video tutorial we demonstrate how the Chain Monster LEGO box robot accomplishes this with a multi purpose attachment for box robots.
Accuracy and consistency is the topic of this tutorial, as all 10 out of 10 tutorials are at FLLCasts. We use a robot build only from LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor parts and we accomplish the mission 10 out of 10 times. You will see how we use an active gear attachment to catch the wheel and pull it to the black circle, which accomplishes the mission
This M12 Water reservoir from FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 is accomplish in two part with the Chain Monster box robot. The first part is in a previous tutorial. This is the second part where we collect the third water unit. We use a passive attachment to collect this unit.
In this video tutorial, we demonstrate an attachment that is activated when we reach the mission model. That means the attachment is not activated by a motor but by the movement of the robot. We accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Cargo Connect Home Delivery mission model, where we have to move and bring cargo to the mission model and leave the cargo there.
In this video tutorial we accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED mission called M04 Solar Farm. We use the chain monster box robot along with a passive attachment that helps us collect 3 of the energy units. The interesting thing about the mission is the collection of the units, of course, but also the way this robot manoeuvres when there is not enough space. It aligns to the lines, it uses the color and motion sensors. Really advance way to align the robot.
This video tutorial is about flipping tires. We are using a LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor and the missing is from FIRST LEGO League 2020-2021 competition called RePlay. In the video you will see how to approach the two tires and how to flip them with an attachment. Then they must be returned back to the black circle.
In this video tutorial the Chain Monster LEGO box robot uses a multi-purpose attachment to collect two elements from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED field and these are the "water" units on the field. What's interesting is that the contain where the water units are stored could be closed and opened and this allows us to freely move while non of the water units are lost.
In this tutorial we demonstrate how a Flip Mission could be accomplished with a Flip Attachment. The robot attachment could be adapted to other flips 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.
In this video tutorial we pull the Smart grid mission model from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 competition. The goal is to lift the hand to connect with the hand on the other team field. We do this my pulling on the attachment and we reuse the same "hand" that we have for collecting.
We've recently received a number of question on how could the SUV box robot be charged. The answer is simple - you detach the back pane. The question and topic of detaching modules from a robot and attaching them again is really interesting and powerfull and yet not very often implemented in many robots.
In this video tutorial the Chain Monster box robot accomplishes a mission that requires two actions. We should lift up (lever) and push almost at the same time on the mission model for it to release the batteries. These mission model is from the FIRST LEGO League 2022-2023 SUPER POWERED competition.
As we are already off the season we decided to look back at the competition. First, we will take a look at the working solution for FIRST LEGO League 2017 Manhole Cover. This was generally accepted as one of the most difficult missions during the competition. We've built a single attachment to accomplish it.
(we are releasing the video without explanations and will add the explanations later)
