Description

Create intelligent remote-control robots and vehicles using interactive in-app building instructions, with the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Robot Inventor App! For use with the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor (51515) set, this companion app has everything you need to build Charlie, Tricky, Blast, M.V.P. and Gelo, each with their own unique abilities. Then get ready to code and play your way through 50+ challenging activities.

A fun build-and-play experience
As you construct each robotic toy using the step-by-step building instructions in the app, you’ll complete a series of fun coding activities along the way. But if you prefer, you can also download a PDF version.

Coding, the fun way
If you’ve ever used a visual coding environment, you’ll be right at home with the Robot Inventor App’s colourful drag-and-drop canvas based on Scratch. Each coding element is grouped into categories so you can quickly find what you’re looking for. As well as using the coding canvas to complete the 50+ activities included in the app, you can also code your own activities for an even greater challenge – or, if you’re a more advanced coder, you can also use Python.

Take control
The Robot Inventor App includes a remote-control feature so you can get your robot walking, dancing and firing with just a few taps! You can also customise it to create your own personalised controller.

Learn while you play
While you’re building, coding and playing with your robots, you’ll also be exploring, experimenting and learning.

Advanced machine learning
Using your device’s camera or microphone, you can train your models to recognise and react to objects and sounds… even your own voice!

A community of fan models
The Community section of the app lets you build and code a growing collection of fun models submitted by some of our fans.

Share your cool creation
If you’ve designed and built your own amazing robot, you can take a photo of it and upload it to LEGO Life for everyone to see. You can also get loads more inspiration from what others have created.

Key Features:
Intuitive drag-and-drop coding interface based on Scratch
50+ fun and challenging activities for beginners and more advanced users
Machine learning with advanced object and sound recognition
Community section with fan models and inspiration
Hub to hub connection for extended play possibilities
Help Centre with lots of tips for learning and exploring

LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Inventor Reviews

Terrible

Maxwel Egton on

United States

I could not connect my spike prime hub to this using Bluetooth. This is completely useless.

nice

Ethan pan35546 on

United States

good but i cant createmy own instructions。

Won’t work on other MINDSTORMS

monsterbuilder80 on

United States

It doesn’t work on nxt so I can’t program it.

EV3 lost

1000000gold 166bucks on

United States

I got EV3 but when I went to this app, EV3 wasn’t there so Lego tell me why he wasn’t there because I was so disappointed and gave up on it.please send feedback

What about the EV3?

James0987654321 on

United States

What I want to know is there an actual way to code the ev3 off my phone? Otherwise I think this app is a bit of a scam, because you would need the newer version of the robot to actually code anything. Please make it so I can code the ev3 off my phone.

Thanks

lqlwellslw,slle on

United States

The best only game I play I do not have a Mindstorm but the game is good

Improve remote control function

spotts mom on

United States

Love the app don’t get me wrong. But for the block coding the remote control blocks are a mess! They take a solid second to update to the code and make an RC car impossible to create, hope this can get fixed in later updates

Buggy mess

4826593749327492 on

United States

This app was very unstable and the controller just did not work

Two missing parts that are on the robot

LinkPlaerZ on

United States

So there are two parts that are needed but are on the robot. Lego you need to have more of them in the box.

LEGO pretends there was no Mindstorms before Robot Inventor

Isigma_by on

United States

It is sad that LEGO not just abandoned (understandably) previous generation of Mindstorms, but is trying to hide the fact the NXT and especially EV3 made LEGO robotics so popular: the official resources and apps for EV3 have mainly disappeared on the Web. To my question to LEGO support: “Is there any way to connect/control Mindstorms EV3 from iPhone?” the reply was “We currently have the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Inventor app available for iPhone”. To my mind, restricting access to resources for the previously sold popular products, and stripping compatibility in order to boost sales for the new ones, only leads to supporters’ frustration and limits trust into the brand. If you have made Robot Inventor superior over EV3 you wouldn’t have a need for this marketing tricks.
