Dominator is a compact LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Box robot from the family of the Roller Coaster and Kiddo box robots. Similar to the previous two robots, Dominator also can move its front part up, down, left and right. This robot also has the same length of movement as its two predecessors of this type - 8 LEGO pins on the side and up.
The difference is that Dominator has fewer parts and has a perfect center of weight that allows it to use large attachments and lift heavy objects without threatening its stability. The movement on the X and Y axes has the same gear ratio. The light sensors are attached to the movable part of the robot which enables it to both follow a line and recognize the color of various object with height lower than 7 LEGO units.

Pallo, from ancient Greek, means to throw or to hurl, which is a part of the modern name "catapult".
Pallo is a robot made of two parts. The first part of the robot is the catapult! It has no electronic parts and uses two rubber bands to shoot a projectile to the second part. The second part is the target. It has a color sensor, which through a piston with different colored sections, determines how accurately the target has been hit! Good luck with the shooting!
This instruction is for the third configuration of the Solid Works File It shows an assembly inside an assembly.
Here is how the instruction looks like in the SolidWorks Feature Manager
This model contains a demonstration of a simple construction with two IS-STEP(s) in the Feature Manager. The folders mean the models has three steps. The first step is the HouseAssam-1, second step is "Flore-4 and Tree-1". Third step is "Flore-1 and Flore2". The final step is the cover of the instructions where we see the whole model. In this way two "IS-STEP" folders produce a model with 4 steps. Source is: Solid Works File
Here is how the instructions looks like in the SolidWorks Feature Manager
When there are no "IS-STEP" folders in the SolidWorks Feature Manager we get this model, where the whole model is a single step and a cover - that is the final step. Source file is: Solid Works File

As you might have seen, recently all the cool kids build tensegrity structures. So we decided to make one for those of you who have a Spike prime set and want to build one themselves! In addition this tensegrity structure requires only parts from the set, which means you don't need to tie any strings on beams or other parts!
At the top of the structure we have two fully functional motors! Can you make something cool with them?
Tohuru, from Maori, means owl.
Tohuru is a SPIKE Prime robot, that holds onto an edge and looks at the nearest object! It uses two medium motors to grip an edge between two wheels. In addition it has a head made out of an ultrasonic sensor, attached to a large motor, which allows it to turn 360 degrees! And most importantly, it looks like an Owl!
Big Wheelster, as his name suggests, is a robot with a big wheel! The Big Wheel is made out of the SPIKE Prime Baseplates. The robot also has an interesting steering mechanism! At the front we have added a touch sensor, to detect an obstacle and hopefully avoid it.
Swing game is a SPIKE Prime robot that is a game played by two people. The goal of the game is for both LEGO people to reach the center of the swing, without it tipping over on either side. The LEGO poeple are placed on motors, connected to two technic gear racks, that move along the swing. The motors are moved by two controllers, one using a color sensor and one using a Large motor. If one of the LEGO people moves too far without the other doing the same, the swing will tip and game over! Good luck and have fun!
Larvy is a SPIKE Prime robot, that moves like a larva or caterpillar. The robot has a Large motor, that contracts and expands it! Using the two medium motors, it turns 4 tyres to their side and upright whenever it wants, so that it can move forward!
A program for the robot can be found here: Program for Larvy - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot
Motivated by the five-minute robot, this robot has its own rails!
Chronos means time in Greek.
What's the time? Time to build a cool robot! This robot is made to look like a clock. The two hands are each connected to a motor and are positioned between the two motors. This makes it simple to build, while also being effective in showing how a clock works.
An example program moving the seconds and minutes hands of the clock can be found here.
An example program designed to teach children to read the clock can be found here.
