Tim is the host of RoboBench a video
series in which Tim shares tips and
tidbits about robot construction using
TETRIX MAX and TETRIX PRIME. See
Tim in action in the new video gallery,
home to RoboBench videos, TETRIX
parts animations, and more at video.

Tim has been a part of the Pitsco
family since 2002. In his current role
as Robotics Application Specialist, Tim
works closely with the development
team on the TETRIX product line.
From 2008-2014, Tim was part of the
LEGO Education Academy as one of
only two Master Trainers for the LEGO
Education North American market.

Welcome to the 2015-2016 TETRIX Robotics catalog!


Last year, we introduced our newest robotics line
TETRIX PRIME. The ease of assembly and disassembly
of TETRIX PRIME makes this product ideal for teaching
STEM. Apply math and science using robotics in your
classroom!

This year, we are excited to introduce the Robotics STEM


Units. This teacher-led, team-based curriculum converts
the excitement and engagement of robotics into learning
outcomes for middle school and high school students.
Pitsco Education has been a leading resource for education products,
activities, curriculum, and STEM solutions since 1971. TETRIX Robotics
has grown tremendously since 2008 and is the favorite for robotics
competitions due to its durability and versatility.
Adding Pitsco curriculum strengthens the educational value and impact on
student learning. Our vision at Pitsco is leading education that positively
affects learners.
Thank you for teaching the leaders of tomorrow!
Sincerely,

CHOKING HAZARD

This product contains small parts, small balls, or


marbles that could pose a potential choking hazard.
Not suitable for children under three years of age.
Children under eight years of age can choke or
suffocate on uninflated/broken balloons.
Adult supervision required.

Harvey Dean, CEO


Former Teacher

STEM and robotics teachers and fanatics,


Robotics keeps us moving . . . this year we have traveled all the way to Sochi, Russia, and Singapore, filmed several RoboBench
videos, attended FIRST Robotics Championships and other robotics competitions, worked with partners to design robotics
sets, introduced TETRIX PRIME around the world, and more!
By creating new TETRIX products and enhancing our current TETRIX systems, we ensure the highest-quality robotics systems
and parts to offer to your robotics teams.
We are excited to introduce to existing LEGO MINDSTORMS users free downloadable EV3 programming blocks that will allow
full TETRIX compatibility with EV3. See page 16 for more information.
Also, check out the Robotics STEM Units curriculum, featuring a remote control unit and two autonomous units built on the
popular Arduino platform. Pitscos patented Quick Rivet System allows for quick assembly and disassembly of robot builds,
making the incorporation of PRIME into the classroom a cinch.
Keep up with us on TETRIXrobotics.com.

Get Started with TETRIX PRIME!
TETRIX PRIME, like its big brother TETRIX MAX, is built for rugged durability. The basic building block for the system is a 16 mm square beam made
from 7005 aluminum. These beams provide the rigidity and durability required for constructing robots.

TETRIX PRIME STARTER SET

Quick Start
Students are guided through the construction
process by a builders guide (included in the
Starter Set). The guide provides instructions
for three robots that can be built with parts
included within the Starter Set.

Quick assembly and disassembly provide


options for classroom implementation.
R/C control right out of the box
Compatible with TETRIX MAX and LEGO
Technic components

4-in-1 tool and hex nut driver
Storage bin
Balls and cups for robot course
Detailed and graphical builders guide (92 pages)
The gamepad controller requires 4 AA batteries, sold separately (the rechargeable fivecell battery pack powers the robot).
TETRIX PRIME is compatible with various programming platforms such as National
Instruments myRIO, LEGO Educations NXT and EV3, Arduino, Rasberry Pi, and more.
Note: The set is a collection of robot construction parts with unlimited design
possibilities. The three pictured bots are tutorials on learning the construction system. Each bot
is built in progression, one at a time. To build the next bot, you must disassemble the first.

Little Joe is a variation of the Wheelee Bot design specs. Like


the Wheelee Bot, it is driven by a single CR servo and steered by
a standard servo-driven pivot. However, with Little Joe, those
features are combined to create a different performance dynamic.
Little Joe can be built using a single Starter Set, and instructions
can be found at www.tetrixrobotics.com

TETRIX PRIME is instantly compatible with TETRIX MAX and LEGO


Technic components. PRIME and MAX have congruent hole geometries,
meaning that the hole patterns match up between MAX and PRIME,
allowing the two systems to be easily integrated. And if that was not
enough, PRIME and MAX share the same modules as LEGO Technic so
they all integrate seamlessly to provide exponential opportunities for
robotic design and construction.

Existing LEGO MINDSTORMS
users can use TETRIX!
Get Started with TETRIX MAX!
TETRIX MAX remains the building system of choice for many
classrooms and robotics competitions. It is a great platform
for robotics and since its inception, we have added many
components to expand the design possibilities. Students in
classrooms across the country (and around the world) have had
the opportunity to experience TETRIX MAX and many have
used the system for constructing their robots for US FIRST,
WRO (World Robot Olympiad), RoboRescue (SkillsUSA), and
other robotics competitions.
We invite you to go to our TETRIXRobotics.com website and
take a look at the information and model builds that we have
highlighted there. But dont just take our word for it; do some
searches on the web to see what innovations students have
come up with as they began using TETRIX MAX, and you will
see why TETRIX MAX has become so popular so quickly within
the educational arena.
Start your engines of robotic innovation to get your students
involved and engaged with practical, relevant hands-on
learning.

A Pitsco Exclusive
Hes traveled with will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas and met
celebrities like Ryan Seacrest. Now Pitscos Mr. Robot can be in your

Standing at almost five feet tall, this humanoid robot can
move forward and backward, move his shoulders and elbows, turn
his head, laugh, and say hello and thank you. And while operating
and watching Mr. Robot is fun, students can also use LabVIEW for
LEGO MINDSTORMS software (not included) to program him to do
specific sequences and dances.
Originally built for the FIRST World Championship in 2011,
Mr. Robot has gone on to become an ambassador for the TETRIX
Building System and for robotics education.
Built from TETRIX and LEGO components, Mr. Robot is durable
and powered by two 12 V, 3,000 mAh NiMH battery packs. He comes
with a TETRIX 12 V battery charger, an NXT Brick charger, a Logitech
USB game controller, a USB Bluetooth dongle, and an operators

Recent Appearances

When learning is fun and hands on, kids


are more likely to want to come to class
or join an after-school program. Building robots is a good way to make math
and science fun get beyond using just
books and also get kids to learn to work
together as a team. . . .

Robotic Engineering Remote Controlled
OVERVIEW
Robots are everywhere in manufacturing plants, helping bomb squads disable explosives, in underwater
explorations, and even surveying the Mars landscape. And there is no better way to build excitement for
engineering than to have students build and operate their own robots. Using the flexible TETRIX building
system and other available materials, Robotic Engineering Remote Controlled provides an exciting
exploration into robotic design, construction, and operation. This course is designed to introduce students
to the engineering concept of robotics in a fun and creative way. They learn the basics of building a robot
and then stretch their imaginations to design robots that dance, herd, crush PingPong balls, and more. Plus, they become proficient at operating the remote
control to make their robots go through mazes and other activities.

SAMPLE ACTIVIT Y
After learning the basics of robot construction, students focus on creative
problem solving using the TETRIX building system. In the Robot Artist
activity, they design and build a robot that can hold markers to draw
on a paper canvas on the floor. First, students apply their knowledge of
end effectors and robot maneuverability to create a robot design.
After building the design, they hone their skills as remote-control
operators to create a pattern, design, or image on the canvas.
