Educational robotics kit Fischertechnik Smart Robots Max experiment kit, model 564111

Fischertechnik 564111 is a 530-piece building set designed for ages 10 and up. The kit contains modular structural elements, motors and sensors that allow construction of mechanical models and programmable robots. It is compatible with the fischertechnik RX Controller and ROBO Pro Coding software to enable graphical programming of nine predesigned models ranging from entry-level constructions to multi-directional driving robots and an entertaining dancing robot. The set includes omniwheels driven by four motors, a track sensor, a gesture sensor and a push button to expand interaction and control options.

Advantages

The set combines hands-on mechanical building with programmable electronics, enabling learners to explore gears, movement and structural design while practicing logical sequencing and control. Omniwheels and four motor drives provide omnidirectional motion not typical in basic kits, and included sensors increase the scope of interactive behaviours. ROBO Pro Coding is platform-independent and supports graphical programming on desktop and mobile devices, which simplifies entry for beginners while remaining useful for classroom demonstrations and hobby projects.

Suitable for

• STEM education and classroom lessons in mechanics and basic robotics
• Hobbyists and makers building programmable driving robots
• Hands-on demonstrations of gears, sensors and structural assemblies
• Project work where modular components and programmable control are required

How to use

Assemble components according to the included instructions to build one of the nine model variants or create your own design. Connect motors and sensors to the RX Controller, then install or access the ROBO Pro Coding software on a compatible device. Use the graphical programming environment to assign motor outputs and sensor inputs, test movement and adjust parameters. Follow incremental assembly and test cycles: build the mechanical structure first, mount motors and sensors, then program basic behaviours before adding complexity.

Usage recommendations

Use on a flat, stable surface for mobility tests and ensure batteries or power source for the RX Controller are fully charged. Supervise younger users during assembly and when handling small parts. For classroom use, plan sessions that separate build time and programming time to ensure focused learning outcomes.
