The new complete computing package from Fischertechnik! Consisting of a kit for building 8 mobile robot models, the new ROBO Interface and the new ROBO Pro software.

The instructions show how to build 7 mobile robots and one walking robot. Mobile robots now feature improved all-round edge detection or obstacle detection. A light finder constantly tracks a light source moving ahead of the robot. The tracker follows a black line. The light finder can also be combined with the obstacle detection function. The walking robot has 6 legs like an insect and can move forwards, backwards, and to the left and right. Kit includes 2 power motors (reduction ratio 50:1), 4 sensors, 2 phototransistors, a lens tip lamp. More than 350 components. From 12 years. Additional power supply required (e.g. Accu Set).

Includes an activity booklet on the subject of "Programming and Control of fischertechnik roboters via computer".

The included ROBO Interface provides advanced features. A quantum leap in the world of computer-controlled fischertechnik models. The kit includes a 16-bit microcontroller, USB and serial interfaces, as well as 128 kByte of flash memory for downloading 2 different programs which are retained even if the power supply is disconnected. Four 9V/250mA (max. 1A) motor outputs now with variable speed control, 8 digital inputs, 2 analog inputs for resistances from 0-5kO, 2 analog inputs for voltages from 0-10V and 2 inputs for digital distance sensors. Additional 26-pole male connector strip - to which all inputs and outputs are brought out - for convenient connection of finished models through a single 26-pole connector.

Included ROBO Pro Software is a graphical programmer's application for Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP. Easy for beginners to use, thanks to a proven flowchart programming utility consisting of various software modules.

Data can be interchanged between software modules and subroutines using not only variables but also graphical connections. Program operation is easy to understand. Subroutines are stored in a library and and can be used without having to understand the internal workings in the subroutine. Beginners will find it easy to grasp even complex programs.

The graphic programming language ROBO Pro provides all the key elements of a modern programming language, such as arrays, functions, recursions, objects, asynchronous events and quasiparallel processing, making it a useful tool even for professional programmers. Programs are translated directly into machine language for efficient execution of even the most complex programs. Even advanced programmers will find that ROBO Pro knows no limits. With ROBO Pro, it's easy to write teach-in programs or exchange data with other Windows software.

In Online mode, it is possible to control multiple ROBO Pro interfaces in parallel - for large-scale models - and to make custom control panels which include switches, controllers and display elements.

We include a free adapter power supply with the ROBO Mobile Set. You may also consider the optional Accu Set - rechargeable power supply for untethered operation.

One of the best kept secrets in kids' robotic educational building block systems. Fischertechnik kits are built to provide the highest quality construction experience. The kits are significantly better for teaching about robotics and machines than other popular block systems. The Fischertechnik advanced connection system holds projects together until they are taken apart. Excellent instruction booklets have lesson plans that take your child step by step through the building and operating process. These sets more closely match real-world robotics and machinery than any other play construction system available. They provide excellent spacial and math skills for girls and boys. Best of all, kids love them!
