Tohuru, from Māori, means owl.
Tohuru is a SPIKE Prime robot that grips onto an edge and scans for the nearest object! It uses two Medium Motors to hold onto an edge between its wheels. Its head—made from an Ultrasonic Sensor—is mounted on a Large Motor, allowing it to rotate a full 360 degrees. And most importantly, it looks just like an owl!
Motorka, from Czech, means "motorbike".
Motorka is a motorbike-style robot with three wheels: two at the back and one at the front for steering. The rear wheels are powered by two medium motors, while the front steering wheel is driven by a large motor.
The robot uses various parts from the SPIKE Prime base set to resemble a real motorbike. For example, at the front it has a color sensor that serves as the headlight!
Oh no, the delivery is running late! Don't worry, this warehouse robot made to hold and drag objects is here to help! It uses two medium motors to move around and one for a grabber. The grabber, which is at the front of the robot, consists of two double angular lift-arms that are each connected to a gear.
Sometimes we want a part to move more, sometimes less. Here are the pins that can help with that!
Sometimes we don't need the robot to do the same and predictable things, but something random and unexpected! Here's how to do it!
In Hindi, "tantr" means "gearwheel."
The robot moves using two medium motors with small wheels. It has multiple gearwheels attached to the moving wheels, giving it a more complex appearance. In reality, these gears are just for making the robot look cooler. However, you can program them to perform any function you desire!
The programming process for accomplishing M05 Angler Fish, M09 Unexpected Encounter, M14 Sample Collection, M12 Feed the Whale, and M03 Coral Reef of the FIRST LEGO League 2024-2025 SUBMERGED Challenge is streamlined, making it easier to manage even in a large multi-mission run. The design of the two-part attachment system significantly influences how the robot moves, simplifying the code and reducing complexity.
The program is surprisingly simple for such a comprehensive run, with the robot performing a series of maneuvers to collect, deliver, and push mission elements. For maximum accuracy, it uses gyro turns, slow acceleration, and reduced speed in trickier spots to maintain control. By letting the attachments guide much of the interaction, the programming remains clean and reliable, enabling the robot to handle multiple scoring tasks efficiently in a single trip.
