Many teams have followed the same idea as the ELM team. To build a LEGO Mindstorms attachment for the robot and to lift the truck very lightly. In this way they could more the truck and place it in the special region. See what the ELM idea was.
Third, and last video of this series on how to use ONE attachment to solve the FLL 2014 World Class missions.
Overview of what is going to happen that part of the lessons.
We are introducing the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Ultrasonic Sensor. The first program is actually to detect an object and stop near it, at about 4 inches/10 centimeters. The ultrasonic sensor could be used during robotics competitions, but most of its use is for experiments.
Every turn is a circular motion and we will review the three types of turns from this point of view.
Sebastian is a six-legged creature, which technically makes it not-a-crab. Anyway, it still walks sideways and is amazing to build and watch.
You can find the program for Sebastian here.
This project is for Hrutur - a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Ram robot. The project includes two programs. The first one makes the robot go forward for two seconds and then detect if it has collided with something and if it has, it goes backwards for half a second. The second program is basically the same, but checks a lot more frequently whether the robot is hit, and is repeated in a loop. Both programs use motor rotation sensor to detect collision.
The goal of this lesson is for students to have fun with a new robot.
