Saving LEGO MINDSTORMS: Status Update!
Added 2025-04-04 11:55:54 +0000 UTCWhile we've not posted many blog updates recently, we've been working tirelessly on our mission to save LEGO MINDSTORMS with the help of our MINDSTORMS legends!
If you've been keeping an eye on our code, you might have seen hundreds of code updates recently, as we gear up to support EV3. We thought this was a good time to demonstrate where we are with a quick video update.
This is clearly not the most impressive EV3 robot you've ever seen, but we're excited about the progress we've made on motors, sensors, and the EV3 brick. All of this is now included in our upcoming brand new firmware for EV3.
One of the next big steps will be to enable USB communication with the brick. This is necessary to download and run programs (kind of essential!). Once that is ready, advanced users should be able to try out an early version while we work on making it more accessible to beginners as well.
Thanks again for your support!

Yes! We are about to announce a pre-release for early birds like yourself!

Having to teach two different code languages makes things harder. With Pybricks we can use more or less the same code for many projects.
