All-in-one option for anyone interested in the area of mobile robotics and robotic competitions.

Among the 670 components included is the all new fischeretchnik TXT Controller. The TXT boasts many improvements over previous versions of the fischertechnik controllers, including a full color touch screen, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capability, a 500mHz dual processor, an integrated loudspeaker, USB host interface, a Micro SD card slot, and much more. A license of ROBO Pro, the easy-to-use graphic programming software especially created for fischertechnik’s robotic models, is also included.

In addition, this set also includes hours of standards focused curriculum material, especially created for fischertechnik by noted educator and STEM expert, Tom White. Standards addressed by this curriculum include College and Career Readiness standards for Math, Science, Reading and Writing, as well as NSES Content Standards, Standards for Technological Literacy, ISTE standards, and the Next Generation Science standards.

The curriculum for the fischertechnik Education Robotics Competition Set comes in a convenient PDF format, with a separate version for the teacher that include all the necessary standards and instructional materials, as well as a version for dissemination to the students.
