Video tutorials

We encourage you to explore the software on your own.

We challenge you before we give you the theory: browse in the software and try to achieve the behavior in the video below.

Overview of the big task that we want to achieve in this module.

In this lesson we will program our robot to display emotions!

Let's put everything that we have learned so far into practice. Let's make a spy robot!

Experiment with the software for about five minutes, before we even give you any directions.

So far we know how to make a turn in an arc, just like the real cars do.
Today we will see what other options our robots have for turning.

Use any blocks that you wish to solve the following task.

The more advanced task is to more in a polygon. This would require calculating the degree of each of the turns and RobotC is a language in which you could implement this math calculation very easily.

In this tutorial, we set the task of implementing another figure with the robot - a triangle. 

Connect the attachment to the box robot and find the correct number of rotations of the middle motor that would bring the robot up and forward and would attach it to the mission model.

In this tutorial we would introduce you to the concept of loops using this VEX EDR Robot. As a final result we would have a program that makes the robot move in a square and not by repeating the same instructions for move and turn four different times.

Try to solve the challenge of this module and observe the cup.

Robots could do chores for us and they must consider the load of the cargo or the robot could be damaged.

Calculate the number of rotations you have to do with the motor to rotate the final small 8 teeth driving gear wheel to 1.25 rotations?

The important task before the solution. If you haven't done it already, then attach a new axle at the front of the robot and extend the construction with gear wheels and axles to reach the two legs at the two sides of the robot. 

Try to build the attachment following the instructions. Use it to actually solve a mission from any competition (like taking loops)

Here is the task for adding a beam on both sides of every gear wheel in your attachment.

Experiment with changing the orientation and direction of gear wheels. Here are part of the tasks that you should complete before moving forward with the course.

With this video tutorial, we start with Turns with the VEX EDR robot. 

In this episode we will show you how to build the FiveMinuteBot. We will make a quick overview of this Mindstorm Robot.

Specific challenge on programming the robot to move as a Yo-Yo

Build a similar mechanism to this one. Similar, but for your robot. This is the task for you. Try, give yourself half and hour or even an hour.

What is the end result? - have the attached on the mission model. What is the mechanism the would make the robot hang on the mission model.

Build a robot base to use in the course. You can use the robot base provided by us or you can build one yourself. 

The FIRST LEGO League competition is similar each year. With a little experience you could accomplish most of mission. The goal of this episode is to introduce you to the course, its purpose and approach.
