LOFI Robot is an educational robot construction kit designed to help young makers and inventors learn basics of coding, electronics and mechanics. LOFI
Robot is fully OPEN SOURCE and based on the most popular maker technologies such as ARDUINO and SCRATCH which make it universal maker tool.
LOFI Robot allows to build different robots easily and quickly: obstacle bypass, light following, painting, glowing, moving alone or remotely controlled.
Educational robots are delivered by innovative Polish company from Tricity, which is currently implementing a pilot courses for grades 1-6 with learning
programming in Sopot Autonomous Primary School.

Intro: Gorilla robot

Gorilla robot is a two-legged variation made out of vehicle chasis of the Rover robot.

This robot was built with LOFI Robot construction kit.

Parts list

LOFI Brain controller

Powerbank
Pair of DC geared motors
Set of wooden parts
Distance sensor – HC-SR04

Step 1:
Attach DC motor to the chasis side parts with a help of grip blocks. Pay attention to making both of the motors in mirrored arrangement.

Step 2:
Long rectangular block will be ised as gorilla`s head. Mount the distance sensor (HC-SR04) in it`s grip and attach it in the middle of the face block.

Add the “smile block” and connect the face to the bottom block of the chasis with a help of a connector block.

Step 3:
Mount the LOFI Brain controller to the biggest block of the of the gorilla body.

Connect all the parts of gorilla body together. Use 20mm long nuts to connect blocks near motors` grips.

Step 4:
Attach two long blocks to bottom of gorilla body as its legs.

Step 5:
Build gorilla`s hands.

Step 6:
Put the powerbank in its grip block and mount it on the top of gorilla`s body. Mount gorilla`s arms on the motors` shafts.

Step 7: ​Your gorilla robot is ready!

What can we do with the gorilla now?

- Program it to avoid obstacles with the distance sensor AVOIDING OBSTACLES

- Control it with smartphone/tablet over bluetooth

- Instead of distance sensor use two light sensors as gorilla`s eyes and program it as light followerLIGHT FOLLOWER

- Control it with SCRATCH
