The third version of the EV3 Easy Bot. This is a simple and easy to follow robot, that aims at showing the use of tyres on robots. The robot has a gear up ratio and no tyres, so it is quite fast and entertaining.
LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot designed for a Folk Race competition. This robot has three Ultrasonic Sensors. Follow the building instructions and at the end, you would have a very basic robot with tank treads that you could directly use.
Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot where the motors are placed in an unusual manner. They are vertically placed on the sides. This robot construction base is very convenient for a quick and interesting robot on which you could build.
Maze Runners are one of the very popular robotics competitions. But there are a lot of limits that the robots must comply with. Like the size of the robot.
This here are building instructions for a very small maze runner robot, build with LEGO Mindstorms EV3. It uses two tires that are technic and not Mindstorms simply because none of the Mindstorms tires fit the size limit.
The robot has an Ultrasonic sensor and a Gyro sensor at the top.
The building instructions are for a robot that kind of looks like the Spy Bot but it has treads instead of wheels. Like a Tank. Tank Spy Bot. Treads are always funny and you could use the robot chassis base to extend with additional attachments and tools.
It moves and it collects. It collects objects.
These are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms robot that could collect objects. It is not actually catching them and that's why we call it "Simple Catch Bot". The general case is to program it to move on the floor and collect some of the Mindstorms wheels and tires coming with the 45544, 45560 or 31313 LEGO sets.
Instructions for building a steering chassis from LEGO EV3 Mindstorms. It uses EV3 Large motor to power the rear wheels and EV3 Medium motor for the steering mechanism. Find building instructions for the remote control here.
"Bot. Spy Bot."
Many of us are fascinated by the idea of spies. Movies for "spies" are also very popular and if you haven't watched them check out the 007 movies. These here are building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms robot with two touch sensors and one ultrasonic. It could be used as a spy - sneaking closer to you and detecting if you move or if you touch it. The whole idea for this robot came from NXT when there were sound sensors. Currently, there are no sound sensors in the EV3 set, but the robot could again be quite fun to program.
Not all LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot should be aligned horizontally or vertically. It is quite possible to have the brick and the motors attached in such a way that the robot is at a certain angle.
This is a very useful small construction that could be used as a base and extended with hands and heads or other interesting ....robot body parts.
In all building instructions for LEGO robots it is important to have the motors attached to the brick in more than one place. In the following construction, there is a beam connecting the two motors which has exactly this purpose. It makes the construction much more stable. Try removing this beam for example and see what will happen. Would the robot be able to move?
Many different types of wheels could be used. Both NXT and EV3 or from other LEGO technic series.
Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot where the motors are at the back of the horizontally placed brick and they are placed vertically. This construction is difficult to turn with but at the same time is quite high and could be used as a base for different trucks or animals.
Building instructions for a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robot that could be completed in about 3 minutes. Could you do it? Try it.
We use this robot when we need something very fast for a demonstration or a small competition. Just attach the motors and you are ready. It is fast.
