This set has everything you need to turn a TETRIX PRIME R/C Robotics Set into a TETRIX PRIME Programmable Robotics Set.

Developed specifically for middle school students, the TETRIX PULSE is a beginner friendly, all-in-one controller with downloadable TETRIX Ardublockly library and programmer's guide. Specifically developed for the TETRIX PRIME system that is powerful yet easy to use, when combined with the TETRIX Ardublockly software and Arduino Software (IDE), provides an ideal learning tool for teaching graphic or syntax-based coding. 

Key Features:
 

• Powerful array of ports allows students to get started and quickly scale to advanced programming.
• Pocket-sized footprint enables flexible placement on any robot.
• TETRIX Ardublockly is drag-and-drop block-based graphic coding software used to program the PULSE controller. Students learn the basics with TETRIX Ardublockly graphic programming, and expand coding skills with Arduino text. In addition, the PULSE controller can be programmed with a syntax-based coding method using the Arduino Software (IDE) and the PULSE Arduino Library.

Learning Values: 

• Science: Data collection and analysis; Defining criteria and constraints; Observation and data; And Variables.
• Technology: Accuracy; Coding; Construction techniques; And Technological Design.
• Engineering: Engineering design; Developing possible solutions; Problem-solving; And Teamwork.
• Math: Accuracy; Computation/estimation; Logic; And Ratios.
