  1. Mindstorms History 05 1998 - The culmination of years of research and development between LEGO and MIT, the first LEGO Mindstorms set, 9719 Robotics Invention System, is launched in 1998. In the video below, Gaute Munch and Erik Hansen talk about the creation of LEGO Mindstorms.
  2. Mindstorms history 04 1992 - As electronics became smaller, lighter and cheaper, Seymour Papert and Mitch Resnick envisioned an “intelligent brick”, which could be programmed, thus robots no longer needed to be connected to computers. The first prototype, the Grey Brick, was developed in 1990, which was followed by the Red Brick in 1992.
  3. LEGO's official 20th Anniversary LEGO Mindstorms video says 1988 (Go to 1:23 on the video).
  4. Mindstorms history 03 1990 - Lego TC Logo was hampered since the robots you built had to be tethered to a personal computer. Lego and MIT began to explore the concept of an intelligent brick, which could be programmed and operate independently of a computer. One of the steps along the way was the Technic Control Center sets. This allowed you to ‘program’ the robots you built by recording a sequence of actions, which can be replayed later.
  5. Most welcome! Also feel free to drop a link to your thread here!
  6. Mindstorms History - 02 1988 - The collaboration between MIT and LEGO resulted in LEGO TC Logo in 1988, which allowed students to control Lego models using computer commands. In the video below, Seymour Papert introduces LEGO TC Logo at an inner-city Boston public school, the Hennigan school.
  7. Build a LEGO Mindstorms rabbit for Chinese New Year! LEGO Mindstorms 51515 Robot Inventor version: LEGO 45678 Spike PRIME version: LEGO Mindstorms EV3 31313 version: LEGO Mindstorms EV3 45544 version: Have fun!
  8. Very cool! Thanks for sharing! Byte Magazine Volume 07 Number 08 featuring LOGO https://archive.org/details/byte-magazine-1982-08
  9. Since it's the 25th anniversary of LEGO Mindstorms this year I thought it would be interesting to share a history of LEGO Mindstorms. One post every Thursday. Of course everyone is welcome to chime in. Mindstorms History - 01 1984 - Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen watched a TV program, 'Talking Turtle', where MIT professor Seymour Papert demonstrated how children could control robot 'turtles' using LOGO, a programming language he developed.

  10. RI5 missile launcher building instructions.
  11. RI5 gift box building instructions. Made for the LEGO #buildtogive campaign.
  12. You're not wrong, the retail Mindstorms set is coming to an end, but as you have pointed out before, you can still program all the previous Mindstorms sets using either native or community developed apps, and there's already stuff like PyBricks which you can use once LEGO stops development of the retail Mindstorms app. Also bear in mind that SPIKE Prime will still be going on for the foreseeable future due to its importance for LEGO Education and FLL. As for me, I foresee that I'll still happily be playing with my sets and posting my builds online regardless what LEGO does. And this happened today. LOL. Seems the socmed team can't tell the difference between Boost and Mindstorms.
  13. RI5 Achbot building instructions. Based on a very famous puppet made by Jeff Dunham.
  14. You can use PyBricks to program both the SPIKE Prime and Robot Inventor hubs. https://pybricks.com/install/spike-mindstorms/
  15. Technic Demo Days @ C2Age Jaya Shopping Center, day 2
  16. Yeah it was fun! We were at Pavilion Bukit Jalil today as well:
  17. Today I was part of a group demonstrating LEGO Technic Control+ sets at a local shopping mall here in Malaysia. Check out the video below. Hope you like it.
