This is an attachment for the top of the robot and the attachment is used for lifting different parts. It is reusable as we could change the lever and use the attachment for a number of different missions.
This reusable attachment could easily be placed on the side of a LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor robot and accomplish different missions that require the robot to interact with mission models. It uses gear wheels.
This attachment demonstrates pushing and pulling with a circular motion. It is useful for FIRST LEGO League competitions where you can grad a mission model and bring it back to base or push/pull on a lever.
This attachment demonstrates the principle of dropping a part inside a container. It uses parts only from the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 set. The goal of the attachment is to release a lever that is holding the wheel.
This is an attachment positioned below the robot and used for when we need to push something with the robot. It keeps the cargo in place while pushing. In this way we can achieve a consistent behavior with the robot, which is what we all want
Forth version of a reusable gear attachment. Again, it powers two axles and this time there is a lever connected to one of the axles.
This flip attachment from LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 set is design to flip parts. It can flip a manhole for example, but could also flip other parts. The principle of flipping is quite interesting as it uses two axles and a border.
We use this attachment to discuss how an attachment and a module from LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor could be build in an easy to detach fashion. Check out the tutorial in the lesson for this attachment for more information about Detachable Modules
This is an Inertia triggered attachment build with a LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 set. With this attachment we can collect different parts and bring them back to base at FIRST LEGO League competitions. The principle is useful as no additional motors are required for activating this attachment. In the same time it is active which means that it moves and can change it's position in space separately from the robot.. which is useful
Second version of a reusable gear attachment. This time the black gear wheel is at the top. It is useful when you are constrained by space.
First version of a reusable gear attachment. By following the same principle for assembling the attachments you can change the direction of the gear wheels and build powerful attachments that could accomplish missions in any direction.
This is an pinless robot attachment designed for taking loops. It's built with LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor parts and it demonstrates how to collect a loop while moving with the robot. The attachment is designed for Luly, small LEGO Education SPIKE Prime competition robot with 3D building instructions. There are other attachments that are designed for taking a loop and locking it so that it does not fall, but they are more complex. Search for 'Carabiner' at FLLCasts.com
LEGO Attachment user for throwing/shooting a ball. It is powered with one motor and uses the fact that the parts of the LEGO set could bend. Build and experiment with it. Many FIRST LEGO League competitions have missions that could be accomplished with attachments that throw/shoot
Attachment for grabbing loops build from LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor 51515 set. We use this robot attachment to accomplish missions with loops at FIRST LEGO League. Well, we use the principle, that is what's important. Check out the attachment and the course to understand the principle of grabbing loops.
Third version of a reusable gear attachment. In this scenario a single motor could power two different axles in two different directions. If you use it to accomplish a mission do not forget to send us a video. We would love to see it.
This attachment is a demonstration of how easy to detach attachment could be build for LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor robot where both the robot and the attachment is from the same 51515 set. The principle is useful for accomplishing missions where the mission model should be placed on the FIRST LEGO League field and in the same time should be supported in a way. Check out the tutorial for a demonstration.
