Energy efficiency plays an important role in transportation. Switch your diesel engine for electric. You will save money while being environmentally friendly.

Water released from the reservoir turns the turbine wheel to generate electricity.

Send the water unit from the top of the hydroelectric dam into the turbine wheel to release the energy unit.

Once you get used to it, it's easy. We promise! Here is the deal - we need 'Alternative models' and 'Alternative missions' to facilitate learning in a team of students or when you can not build the specific mission models.

Worm gear technology creates rotation that can enhance the way lights move in a light show.

Trigger the light show on the tower by raising the handles.

Don't limit yourself to the box and think of different ways to lift the robot. 

Building a rack is a very important skill during competitions. You should try to build one, learn how to use it and have it as a tool for you next robots. But for this particular BoxRobot, we will not continue with a rack.

In the final video we explore how to trigger the release of the attachment with just a rubber band. The release is triggered with a gear wheel that rotates in a specific way. This saves speed, does not require additional LEGO Mindstorms motor and is precise enough for a competition. 

This is the first Active Pinless Attachment for the Box competition robot. The attachment is placed on the top of the robot and is controlled by one of the motors. 

Using the rack depends on the experience of the team. Based on this a different number of gear wheels and racks would be used.

Extend the previously build attachment for the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Nature's Fury competition so that we can move the Truck and Ambulance up and down. 

How to align the wheels and how much should you push for this solution?

In this video tutorial we look at programming the Kriket box robot to accomplish 5 missions. It is a long program for a long run that's why we are dedicating a separate tutorial. We are using LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Word Blocks app.

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).
