fischertechnik kits can be used with a variety of hardware and software solution add-ons. This section explains and describes what solutions are available, and how to connect them to fischertechnik components.
Controller add-ons
Arduino
Arduino is a development platform with a variety of controllers, such as “Arduino UNO”, to which you can connect many different sensors, motors, and other actuators.
The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer on which a complete operating system has been installed. It is suitable for complex tasks and computing-intensive programs, and can execute multiple programs at the same time.
ftDuino is a combination of the popular Arduino controller and the fischertechnik construction kit system. The controller was specially developed for use with fischertechnik, and is ready to use right out of the box.
The BBC micro:bit is a single-board computer and can be programmed as needed. It is highly compatible with the fischertechnik system using a practical adapter. To BBC micro:bit
The Calliope is a single board computer designed specifically for educational purposes in schools. This can be optimally supplemented with fischertechnik.
