Wow, how long has this been around? Does it use the standard LEGO attachment system or is it all nuts and bolts? Looks sort of like Meccano.

- introspekt 14y agoIt's actually produced by a Pitsco, Inc. Much like Meccano it's put together with nuts and bolts. There are parts called Hard Point connectors to interface with Lego. http://www.legoeducation.us/eng/product/tetrix_hard_point_connectors/1646 http://www.legoeducation.us/eng/product/tetrix_hard_point_co... Looks like a joint venture for educational purposes.

- groker 14y agoI've been looking at this system too. http://matrixrobotics.com http://matrixrobotics.com Interfaces perfectly with Lego and is more Lego like in the way you can build things. Their holes line up perfectly with Lego holes. Pretty cool.
