late last night I stumbled onto their website:

http://www.fischertechnik.com/

I vaguely remember playing with a set when I was maybe 10 yrs old.  They
seem to be trying to compete with Mindstorms lately, especially in the
educational market.

Does anyone have a set, and/or have any experience building with it?  How
does it compare to Mindstorms?

thanks in advance - dbm

Have you seen the new Vex robotics stuff from Radio Shack? I think that is more of a competitor to mindstorms (several people on this list now have some experience with that). Larrry Whitman larry.whitman@wichita.edu (...) (19 years ago, 26-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Which you can make rigid by merely using a rack or worm gear, and depending on space - some additional gears to displace the locking mechanism, however there may still be some play in that. OrionRobots (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics)
