|
LEGO Dacta ROBOLAB LEGO MINDSTORMS for Schools or LEGO Dacta ROBOLAB is a classroom solution from LEGO Educational Division that integrates robotics and programming. Both LEGO MINDSTROMS and LEGO Dacta ROBOLAB have same type of parts. The main difference is the programming language that each kit comes with and the pricing. The ROBOLAB is based on LabVIEW, from National Instruments, Texas USA. The ROBOLAB Software uses an icon-based, diagram building environment to write programs that control the RCX. The ROBOLAB is the ideal hands-on tool for helping your students learn a variety if topics including math and science, and computer and design technology. Though it is slightly more expensive, it has more components than LEGO MINDSTROMS - roughly 800+.
