This The First Tool Advanced Programmable Robotics Set features a set of components with 670+ building elements and contains the Robotics Controller and the building elements needed for students to engineer code and test solutions using real-world robotics technology.

It is designed to provide a team of up to four students with the hardware to create autonomous robots. This set is complete with two sensors and a programming guide that introduces the basics of coding through a series of hands-on projects.

This set includes the Advance Robotics Controller Component set with a 32 KB flash programmable memory ATmega328P processor with Arduino Optiboot bootloader.

The Robotics Controller is fully integrated. The programmable brain for your bot features a variety of motor, servo, encoder, and sensor ports with convenient connectors that enable you to control your robot's behavior like never before. This controller offers the best of both worlds – a learning tool that is powerful yet easy to use. With the controller, you can take learning to new heights by creating robots that are smarter, more precise, and as real-world as it gets.

A printed guide to programming and a controller using the Arduino Software (IDE) is also included. The controller is specifically developed for use with the building system and comes with programming support for the Arduino Software (IDE), which is compatible with Windows, Mac OS X 10.7 or newer. and Linux devices that have a USB port.

Take your The First Tool robots to the next level with a stronger 12 V DC motor with 100 rpm and 700 oz-in. of torque. The motor features a built-in high-resolution Hall effect encoder for precise motor control. Based on user feedback and created specifically to withstand the stress of intense robotics competitions this is the strongest The First Tool motor yet. TorqueNADO is compatible with all The First Tool ADVANCE DC Motor Mounts

Heavy-duty aluminum channel pieces are the structural base for building blocks for creating robots. They come in five different lengths for flexible building – also, pieces can be cut to custom lengths with a metal-cutting blade.

Flats create added versatility, whether you’re making a flat surface or creating a scoop or other angled piece. The elements come in four lengths and you can shape them into various angles using a Metal-Bending Tool (not included) to create rails, braces, brackets, gussets, and other custom pieces with ease.

This set includes a mounting kit that enables easy alignment of standard-size servo motor shafts to the hole pattern. The flexible attachment options allow for a multitude of design possibilities. Includes a mounting plate, bearings, stand-offs, and aluminum servo shaft to 4.7 mm steel D-shaft axle adapter.

This set supports all-important learning values, like science, technology, engineering, and math.
