In this activity, design and construct an RCX car and program it to run
for varying lengths of time. The distances that the car travels will be
recorded and plotted into a graph to determine how long the car will need
to travel in order to make it stop as close to a randomly pla...

In this activity, design and construct an NXT car and program it to run for varying lengths of time. The distances that the car travels will be recorded and plotted into a graph to determine how long the car will need to travel in order to make it stop as close to a randomly placed LEGO person as po...

In this activity, design and construct an RCX or NXT car and program it to enter
a tunnel, then reverse back out when it encounters a darker light reading.

In this activity, design and construct an RCX tractor that is capable of pulling a heavy load across a floor. (NOTE: Gears will be needed.)

In this activity, use an NXT and a light sensor to trace the tracks of an Egyptian tomb raider. The police need to know data about the tomb raider so that they can stop him from robbing other tombs. Can you determine the time the burglar entered the tomb and what path the burglar took around the roo...
