A Pitsco Exclusive

Description

Get the best of both worlds and take hands-on STEM learning to the next level with the TETRIX® MAX Dual-Control Robotics Set. Complete with the PRIZM® Robotics Controller and wireless gamepad and receiver, this set comes with everything needed to create programmable or remote-controlled robots. Designed to provide one student or a team of up to four students with the hardware necessary to engineer, test, drive, or code robots, this set is complete with a builder’s guide and a programming guide that introduce the basics of building and coding through a series of hands-on projects.

Limited Time Bonus Offer

TETRIX MAX Dual-Control Robotics Sets purchased between April 1 and June 30, 2024, will include four single annual licenses for TETRIX Virtual Robotics. Use the parts and pieces of your robotics set alongside this coding environment to create a blended virtual/hands-on learning experience for your robotics learners! Because TETRIX VR is moving to a new platform, the licenses will be valid from August 2024 through December 2025.

“[With TETRIX] there’s a long history of curriculum, example robots, YouTube videos, and all kinds of stuff for them to go draw from for ideas.”

– Clarissa Belbas, president of ASSiST (Advancing STEM for Students in South Texas)

“I’m quite pleased with not only the durability of the TETRIX kits, but how much potential they seem to have.”

– Joe Slifka, TAG member, technology teacher, LaBrae High School, Leavittsburg, Ohio

“I’ve built robots before, but this is my first time using [TETRIX]. I like how it is more complicated than the ones I usually do. It makes me think more.”

– Avery, student, Thomas Jefferson Independent Day School, Joplin, Missouri
