Thanks Mr Jos, Coder, For sure very inspirational and very good starting points to invent/add new solutions!

A 2d plotter would be really cool because my son could have some real output and this could be also a nice eyecatcher for the teachers and would probably also involve some more programming to make Mindstorm to draw some lines. I saw some examples of Mindstorm writing/drawing machines in youtube but they look pretty sophisticated for a beginner. Does anybody have any idea for a semplified version ? Thanks for any suggestions..the final school test is getting close 😅

Thanks. He has the ev3 box with the parts that can be used to build 3 or 4 different robots. Below the image of the box. The examples you showed are very nice but too complex for the time he has. I would have no problem to buy some more parts from lego shop but i was thinking to some simple robotic application. I found this one, but I think it is not for ev3, but i guess it is adaptable:https://www.nxtprograms.com/robot_arm/steps.html

We have the Mindstorm Ev3 kit. My son, 14 y old, came out with the idea to make his final small thesis for the school on industry and automation and, as a part of it, he would like to build some simple mindstorm automation example . Any suggestions ? We have 1,5 month of time. I was thinking on a very basic 2d plotter? (Probably with 2 rack and pinions to move the 2 axis?) Where can we find ideas?
