CUBELETS

Modular Robotics started as a spin-off from Carnegie Mellon University, where founder Eric Schweikardt invented Cubelets while working on a PhD. After years of research and development, Cubelets robot blocks were released to the public in 2010. Funding came from National Science Foundation grants and venture capital from the Foundry Group. This began our work of trying to make the world a better place with thousands and thousands of tiny robots... Production of Cubelets started inside a small house in Boulder, CO where circuit boards were hand-assembled with tweezers and hot plates. In late 2013, Modular Robotics launched the MOSS robot construction system on Kickstarter. The campaign reached its $100k goal in 12 hours and went on to raise more than three times the original goal... Office store for all robots from Modular Robotics.
