The innovative and flexible fischertechnik construction system is esteemed by builders and enthusiasts of all ages, across the globe. There are fischertechnik sets available for all levels of expertise, from starter sets for young children to industrial simulation models. fischertechnik also develops many products to help its users pursue robotics. In fact, fischertechnik was the very first construction set to incorporate robotics and programming within its sets. They continue to create new products to keep up with evolving technology. In addition to the popular ROBO TX Explorer, Mini Bots, and the TXT Discovery Set, fischertechnik has recently released a new Robotics BT Smart Beginner Set.

Robotics: BT Smart Beginner Set

This new set is designed to introduce robotics instrumentation and control to users. The “BT” refers to the ability to control models with Bluetooth. You can build 12 real-world models with this set. It includes 380 parts complete with LED light barriers and XS motors plus photo transistors and button sensors. The Bluetooth component, the BT Smart Controller, provides 4 inputs, 2 outputs, USB and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity. Combined with the downloadable ROBO Pro Light software, you can quickly and easily program your model.

Conveyor Belt with Punch Model

Each model focuses on a different topic important to robotics. From entry level programming with the merry-go-round model to working with switches and light barriers with the punching machine, you’ll learn important concepts. Other models that can be built include a hand dryer, a carousel, a tracked vehicle, a pedestrian light, a lighthouse with blinking light, and a mobile caterpillar machine. You can even build a conveyor belt. If you want to learn more about robotics and programming or looking for tools for teaching others, the fischertechnik BT Smart Beginner Set can help.

fischertechnik Education

fischertechnik also offers a line of products specifically designed for classroom or homeschooling use. The fischertechnik Education line offers solutions for STEM-related related topics such as Electronics, Renewable Energy, and more. The curriculum centered, project-based STEM PREP and STEM Engineering programs encourage inquiry, design, and problem-solving. For younger students, Introduction to STEM I and II sets provide an ideal way to present STEM learning to elementary students. View the academic solutions available from fischertechnik Education.
