[maddride]

Lmao the robot that grabbed the other one in the video made me laugh lol!!! Ordering book because of that lol

[diddims4]

Hi, ive bought the book and built this. i cant find the programming instructions because the insructions after the building doesnt help. is there a place i can download?

please reply!

[Laurens200]

@diddims4 There are step by step instructions in the book. If you don't want to program yourself, they are available for download on the book's companion website (see page xx in the introduction of the book).

[diddims4]

@Laurens200 Thanks so much having fun now! it might be my robot only but it doesnt always figure out if its positive or negative

[robotmaker6]

[battlestrikers100]

[visvamoorthy]

how many projects are there in the book?

[lukebug321]

Where do you get this book I need it

[visvamoorthy]

@lukebug321 amazon

[dwater18]

the algorithm can be better, the sorter robot moves to the default position(to the middle) after every brick,you could set an array containing the colours,and calculate the distance between 2 colours:) just a thought

[Laurens200]

@dwater18 , That's the objective of challenge #71 in this book -- Get the book and go solve it :)

[TheTheSuperSonic54]

[tigrexify]

its a bit crazy what the robots do in the background

[MyJohnmartin]

Wow ! if i buy the book are it instructions to progamming?

[Laurens200]

@MyJohnmartin ,

Yes, there are instructions for programming as well :-)

[aqua0frog]

I pre-ordered your book a while ago and have built shotroller and the brick sorter. I mainly got the book for snatcher, but I am now missing a crucial part. Anyway cool robots. I posted a video of the brick sorter myself, giving all credit to you! I did modify the program to sort when I pushed the touch sensor and showed the original too!

[Laurens200]

@aqua0frog,

That's great! Thanks for the comment. I'm sorry that you lost a part of the set. If you email me, I can give you some suggestions to order a new piece :)

[legospencer123]

thank you so much i bought your book and built the sorter! it is awsome but it puts together 2x2 blocks and 2x4 blocks! but anyways it works great job inventing it!!!!!!

[Laurens200]

@legospencer123 Glad you like it! Try downloading the sample program from the companion website to see if that helps. Let me know :)

[gmfreaky]

Lulz at the random robot at 0:40 XD

[coolclay100]

the beginning is obviously a rewinding it looks like the bricks are magnetic to his hand

[Spokkam]

CLASS!!!!! I need one of these!

[hexendackel]

I have your Discovery Book and it is very good!

[Laurens200]

@hexendackel,

Thank you very much!

[NeXTSTORMING]

NeXTSTORM

[Laurens200]

@NeXTSTORMING,

Haha, maybe it was a sneak peak of the Strider in Action. More to come!

[bazmarc]

@NeXTSTORMING did you mean at 1:10 :D -- i love it that those other robot in action are trying to steal the show ! lol

[hexendackel]

You have the book?

[robson1014]

1:13 Funny :P

[megamindstorm101]

this is seriously brilliant TO THE EXTREME! I love the beginning of the video when you organize the lego "magically" your robot is really amazing too. I love how there is robot activity going on in the background and I love 1:03 when the robot goes with it perfectly.
