FTScratch allows PCs running Microsoft Windows to use the Fischertechnik
ROBO LT in combination with the visual, easy-to-learn programming language
Scratch. Small applications to control motors and indicator lights can be created instantly by means of mini-switches and phototransistors. Due to the variety of opportunities offered by the Scratch programming language, large programs may be developed.
Experimental extensions to Scratch, such as FTScratch, use the development version
ScratchX.
