The Robotics Sensor & Motor Training Kit from Studica Robotics is an affordable turnkey solution that allows you to teach your students how to control sensors and motors using LabVIEW and NI myRIO. It includes two project boards, one with different motors and the other board with most of the standard robotics sensors.

Learn How to Control Motors, Sensors & Actuators with LabVIEW & NI myRIO.

(NI myRIO, LabView and computer are not included).

This set provides you with instructions and materials for building four reality-based and fully functional industrial simulation robots, including a high-rack storage robot, 3-axis robot and 2 other grappler robots. Stable and sturdy fischertechnik aluminum channels are used in all models to simulate robotics in industry. The instructional activity booklet provides support in the form of background information, projects and programming tips. For programmers and designers from age 10. REQUIRES ROBO TX Controller, ROBO Pro software and either Acuu Set or Energy Set to perform all functions--each sold separately.

The subjects of electro-pneumatics and vacuum technology are demonstrated clearly with the aid of fascinating models such as the fischertechnik ROBO TX ElectroPneumatic, color sorting robot for colored parts, ball obstacle course and pinball machine. The new, powerful and compact compressor guarantees a reliable supply of compressed air to the models. The electro-magnetic valves included allow remote c ontrol of the models with a PC.

Experience and understand how the “Smart Home” works, through play, with the new fischertechnik product ROBOTICS TXT Smart Home. The stationary sensor station with a moving camera, new environmental sensor, and other sensors, enables the measurement of air temperature, humidity, air pressure, air quality, volume and brightness. The camera monitors the room and triggers an alarm, e.g. when there is movement in the room, and can create snapshots. The model can be programmed and controlled with ROBO Pro software and the ROBOTICS TXT Controller. The sensors’ data can be collected and plotted on a graph. In addition, the model can connect to a WiFi network, so that the camera can also be controlled from a distance. Beyond that, the TXT Controller can be connected to a cloud server, in which the sensors’ data is saved, and can be retrieved from anywhere in the world. So using a user interface, a so-called “dashboard”, the various sensor data can be permanently monitored, and the movement of the camera can be controlled. Further models and applications of this kit are: barometer (measures air pressure), damp monitor (measures humidity and air temperature), environmental wellness sensor (measures the air quality, temperature, humidity) with LED display, noise sensor (measures volume) and frost monitor (tests temperature against the freezing point). When the pre-set limit values are exceeded and, for example, the room needs to be ventilated because the air quality has fallen below the lower limit value, the system alerts the user via an LED display or with an alarm tone. There are many more possible applications. The accompanying instructional booklet provides helpful background information, projects and programmer tips.
