Programs

This is the LEGO Mindstorms Education EV3-G software that was available from LEGO until October 2020. It is the version for Windows that is not Electron based and not Scratch based. It had all the good features that LEGO decided to drop and make things "easier" for students and slowly migrate to Scratch. LEGO decided to stop the Mindstorms EV3-G software and they are now (as of October 2020) distributing new versions of EV3-G. They decision affected a lot of schools. The new software is running only on Window 10 and there are lots of schools and teams using and relying on Window 7. We are preserving the version here for teams and students to use.

We can offer no support what's so ever for this version and we are asking LEGO if they are OK with us hosting this version publicly and making it available. Hope they would allow us.

This program makes Motorka - LEGO SPIKE Prime motorbike robot move in the form of an 8 (or infinity sign:))! It uses the other program for the robot as a base, but instead of letting the steering free, this program controls it so that the robot moves in a shape!

This program is a solution to the lack of a differential on the robot, which makes its turns slower and bigger! The program reads the realtive angle of the front motor, used for steering, and feeds it to the back motors so as to make one go faster and one slower! This makes the robot turn much faster and smoother. The program requires for someone to turn the steering motor, so experiment with different turning angles and push the limits of the robot! Make sure the markings on the moving and non-moving parts of the front motor align, because that is an essential part of the program!

This program is for the target part of Pallo. It consists of a piston with different colored sections, which are detected by a color sensor. The beginning of the piston is a green section, so the program waits for that to change, meaning that the target has been hit, and then it celebrates! The celebration is pretty simple, it measures the color of the new section, which can give us how accurately the target has been hit, and lights the center button with that color! Additionally it writes "YAY" on the screen of the hub. Feel free to improve it however you like!

This program is for Calix - LEGO SPIKE Prime carrying robot. The robot is made to carry an object while following a black line. This is probably one of the first thought that comes to mind when you think of robotics - A robot that can help at home! This robot is made as a first try at this concept. It can move not too heavy objects from one room to the other, following a black line. The program does the following: First it waits for you to put something on the robot and to click the left or right hub buttons. After that it lifts the item a bit and starts following a black line. It follows the line until it sees the same color for more than 3 seconds, thats how the robot knows it has reached the end of the line! After that it rises whatever it is carrying and waits while keeping the object up.

This program makes Tohuru - LEGO SPIKE Prime owl robot move like an owl! What does an owl move like? Well, we decided that an important part of an owl's life is that it holds strong onto a branch! So the first part of the program makes the robot hold onto anything that is between its two wheels. After the owl starts spinning his head and searches for the closest object to him. Then he stares at it menacingly until it moves away!

This program makes Big Wheelster - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot move forward until it bumps into something! This robot has one big wheel controlled by two medium motors, what's interesting is that the motors need to move opposite directions to make the wheel turn! That is why we have made a My Block to controll the robot. It has the option to move for a set rotations or indefinitely(if you put it to 0 rotations). It also has a logic option for the direction that the robot should move, so 1 = forward and 0 = backward.

The program makes the robot turn backwards after it bumps into something, using its back wheels to make sure it doesen't bump there again!

This program makes Swing game - LEGO SPIKE Prime robot move the two people according to the input from the controllers!

The color sensor controller uses the colors on the plate above it to determine how to move the LEGO person. If the color is blue, it moves forward, if its purple, it moves backwards, otherwise - it stops!

The motor controller has a similar program, if it has turned more than 30 degrees forward, the LEGO person moves forward, if it has turned more than 30 degrees backward, the LEGO person moves backward, otherwise - it stops.

The goal of the game is for both LEGO people to reach the center, without the swing tipping to either side! Good luck and have fun!

This program makes Larvy - LEGO SPIKE Prime larva robot move forward indefinitely! The movement of this robot is very interesting as it works like a caterpillar or larvae! The program works by repeating 3 movements every cycle of the loop:

1. the front motor rotates for 90 degrees, rising or collapsing its wheels
2. the large motor rotates for 90 degrees, contracting or expanding the robot
3. the back motor rotates for 90 degrees, rising or collapsing its wheels

You may notice that every movement command does two things, or the same thing but a different direction. That is done using a variable that is either 1 or -1, and that gives the direction that the motors should move. This variable is also used to determine which motor should use full power and which shouldn't so that the robot doesn't break itself!

MyBlock that makes a turn on specific degrees with minimal inaccuracy.

Input parameters:

• TurningAngle - The angle on which you want to turn your robot.
• MotorPower - The power with which your robot will rotate at first time
• CorrectionPower - The power with which your robot will correct it's turning to make it perfect

This is the Elephant program.

This block rotates the A and D middle motors to their initial positions and reset their rotation sensors.

This block allows you to move straight for desired distance in centimeters with desired power. This block uses gyro proportional movement to move in a straight line.

This program is a continuation of A solution to the tasks in lesson 10 of the Keep 'em clean - remote Scratch game course. This is the final step to create the game "Keep'em Clean". The new thing in this program is that we have added a costume to the victory sprite, which appears when the player loses the game.

This program is a continuation of A solution to the tasks in lesson 9 of the Keep 'em clean - remote Scratch game course. The end goal is to create the game "Keep'em Clean". The new thing in this program is that we have added a victory sprite, which appears when the player wins the game.

This program is a continuation of A solution to the tasks in lesson 6 of the Keep 'em clean - remote Scratch game course. The end goal is to create the game "Keep'em Clean". The new thing in this program is that we make one dirty clone and hide the original sprite, because it doesn't move with it's clones.

This program is a continuation of  A solution to the tasks in lesson 5 of the Keep 'em clean - remote Scratch game course. The end goal is to create the game "Keep'em Clean". The new thing in this program is that we control the sprites to move indefinitely.
