This tutorial demonstrates how a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot could stop when it reaches a wall. FIRST LEGO League competitions are held on tables that have border and it is sometimes useful to use the Ultrasonic sensor to detect the border and stop close to the border. The attachment uses Luly, a small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions as a robot base.
During a competition a team of students had to build a robot that looks like a musician. This construction in front of the robot is a Trompet and it looks like Ane is playing some music. If you play music on the phone on the side it is really funny to watch it play.
In this video tutorial we demonstrate a few ways to use the Distance sensor from the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor on FIRST LEGO League competitions. We don't enter into the details about programming as we do in the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor Programming course, because here we demonstrate the behavior of the robot when the sensor is use and we make the argument that you should always use sensors at FIRST LEGO League competitions
This program is developed with Robot Inventor - LEGO MINDSTORMS App Python and is used to make the robot stop at a distance from the border field.
This is a distance sensor attachment for Gazon 2.0, a LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor robot with a single sensor. This attachment is place on the robot whenever we want to work with the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor Distance Sensor.
This program is developed with Robot Inventor - LEGO MINDSTORMS App Word Blocks and is used to make the robot stop at a distance from the border field.
In this short animation we demonstrate how the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor Distance sensors could be attached to the robot and then use to stop at distance from a wall. This wall could be the border of the field or another mission model. We need an attachment, we need a sensor and we need the robot. In the live video in the lesson we enter into more details and explanations of how the sensor is used. Programs for the distance sensor are provided in the lesson and in the LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor Programming course we enter into more details about how to program the distance sensor
In this video tutorial, we demonstrate how to gently push an object to accomplish the mission. "Gently" means that we are pushing but not with force. If we push using force, the mission model will fall, and we will not accomplish the mission. We use LEGO Education SPIKE Prime and the Ultrasonic Sensor.
This is a pinless attachment for a LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robot that uses the Ultrasonic sensor. The attachment could be placed on top of the robot. As it is pinless, it is easy to quickly place and remove it.
This program uses the Ultrasonic Sensor and the yaw angle detected by it. It aligns the robot to a border and gently pushes on a mission model.
This is a 10 out of 10 tutorial for pushing gently on a mission model. We also discuss how to build robots that tolerate error and auto-correct their behavior.
This is the robot that we use to demonstrate a solution for competition. This is a Post season solution. We never release any solutions during the season as this will have a negative impact on the competition. But after the competition we try to make a review and to see how we could have accomplish it. Our goal is to be better for next year.
This robot is quite powerful. The attachment mechanism on the front is one of a kind as it can do several things with a single motor: it can lift, it can unlock, it can grab. All of this thanks to the unique mechanism of gears
