This is a precise drop tutorial where we demonstrate how to accomplish the FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Load Cargo mission that requires us to precisely drop a cargo into the drain. It is not an easy task, but it has a trick. A trick that allows us to 'shake' the cargo a little bit. The attachment is also auto-correcting to improve consistency. Use this principle whenever you need to drop things.
This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial where we deliver and drop precisely to complete a FIRST LEGO League 2021-2022 Cargo Connect mission. We reuse the same attachment as in other missions to demonstrate a reusable attachment.
This 10 out of 10 tutorials is about consistency and reliability of the robot when accomplishing 5 missions in a row. We explore how we move between mission models. The programming is in the previous tutorial, here we look and discuss the behaviour of the robot
This video tutorial demonstrates how the MiniBox robot completes M11 and M15 of the FIRST LEGO League 2023-2024 MASTERPIECE Challenge season. The robot is a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime box robot, equipped with a mechanism to rotate the M11 Light Show tower. However, we've opted for a more interesting approach. Let's check it out in the video!
In this episode I would like to show you a way to solve the FLL 2012 Medicine mission using an LEGO Mindstorms NXT Ultrasonic Sensor and a system of gears that converts circular motion to linear.
Robotics competition is a large part of the FLL Competition. The field contains missions which give points and the main purpose is to gather maximum number of points for 2:30min. FIRST LEGO League competitions have different themes every year but the tasks have similar functionality. In this video tutorial we will give a brief of missions in Senior Solutions (the theme for 2012).
In this video we are solving part of the FIRST LEGO League Senior Solutions challange missions (FLL 2012) using LEGO Mindstorms NXT robots. I make a step by step explanation of each move I make. The goal of this video is to help you with ideas and suggestions on how one should look at the missions.
The FIRST LEGO League Competition is divided in four categories. The Robot Design category is not as popular as the Robot Game, but still is 25% of the end result of a team. In this tutorial we will stop and make an overview of it.
We continue the discussion of the Robot Design category from the FIRST LEGO League Competition. This time we stop on the programming - how to evaluate the programming of the team during its preparation for the competition.
Based on your feedback we have decided to show you the live process of building a complex LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Competition robot without having the whole robot ready yet. We are continuing from part 2 where we finished the 'front' of the robot and now we will extend it so that we could also attach the rear part.
The previous rubber bands video showed a way to trigger the rubber band without a motor. This video gives one more idea on how to lift an axle and in this way release the rubber band. Use the idea for you LEGO Mindstorms robot constructions.
In Episode 58 we introduced you to an LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Modular robot. Mic Lowne wrote to us and had that robot remade, because it used too many blue lego pins and could not be build using one EV3 kit.
The attachment is now so advanced that we can do two tasks at once with it in order to solve the FIRST LEGO League 2014 World Class Search Engine Mission.
Sometimes you could just throw a ball from base and solve a competition. Or at least many teams think so. In this video we would explore a very simple attachment for throwing balls from base. Can you use this for other missions? - we think so. Check out the video.
Based on your feedback we've build a course for introducing new students to the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 programming and construction. It is designed for school groups, competition teams and students alone in home that can get our feedback on their progress
