R3PTAR Video: roam, chase, bite!

Check out this R3PTAR Video!

In this short video, the R3PTAR has been programmed to follow the IR Beacon and when it reaches the target within the biting distance… Three rapid bytes!

You can compile the C# code I propose in this page using Xamarin Studio 5.10.1 (Build 6), with Mono 4.2.1 as active runtime and the Monobrick Firmware Library 1.2.0.39486 to let it work on board the Lego Mindstorms Ev3 with the Monobrick firmware.

The PID Controller – Part 4

Hi there, In this last post about the PID Controller implementation, I present you the MediumMotorPositionPID class; the MediumMotorPositionPID inherits from the PIDController class and adds the reference to the Ev3 Medium Motor to it. From the Lego website: The EV3 Medium Servo Motor is great for

The SENTIN3L: a walking insect droid

The SENTIN3L is a very interesting insect droid which walks on its two front legs and on a well disguised single rear wheel. This robot can be entirely built with the Lego Mindstorms Ev3 retail set and it is described in

Latest pictures of the Ev3 Tracked Explor3r vehicle

Today, I finally post the pictures of the Ev3 Tracked Explor3r that I’ve built using the Lego Mindstorms Ev3 and programmed in Python with the Ev3Dev firmware. This model is a MOC (my own creation) so its full building instructions are available here. This model does
