Robotics for everyone
We're going to try to make as many people learn about robots as possible by building learning kits that use real-world, off-the-shelf components. Our kits will walk you through the entire pipeline of building your own robot that functions and isn't just a toy. More news to be…
As so many organizations march towards creating humanoid robots, what if we paused to think about a future where robots are not just seen as tools to be put to work?
Should advanced robots be considered alive? Star Trek: The Next Generation approached this subject over 20 years ago:
Captain Picard on the Differences between Humans and Robots
Captain Picard's wisdom on building robots as tools rather than future beings. What implications does this have for us still on Earth?
Robotics is the new literacy and we want robots to be for everybody, not just a few large companies. So we’re building open, low-cost kits so anyone can learn, tinker, and build alongside machines, not above them. Follow us for updates and to support our cause!
Being able to build your own robots at home will be one of the most important things to ensuring an equitable future. We hope to help teach you how to do it
3d printers allow for rapid prototyping and iteration for robotics development!
Did you know there's a robot out there that has already been granted "citizenship"?
Robots will run the world’s workflows. But who runs the robots will matter even more. If we don't create an open culture around robotics today, we are putting future generations at risk of even greater inequality.
Home manufacturing must to be normalized if we want healthier co-existence between humans and robots
If a few companies control the most powerful AI and robots, they’ll control the future. The antidote is open robotics: open hardware, open software, open skills. Shareable, repairable, learnable. Power should be distributed to communities, not locked in corporate infrastructure.
Home-based manufacturing methods, such as 3d printing, will be crucial for ensuring a future where robots are truly democratized instead of being entirely controlled by large corporations. This is a powerful technology that needs to be put in the hands of the people.
Open robotics is how we curb inequality. If a handful of firms own the robots, they own the economy. We need open hardware, open code, and open curricula so everyone can build, repair, and benefit. Concentrated autonomy is feudalism with batteries.
“Subservient AI” bakes hierarchy into the future. Language use matters, and kids shouldn’t learn that owning intelligent machines is normal. While today’s robots are tools, tomorrow may be different. Teach dignity, cooperation, accountability - not dominance.
Do you know what robot was the first to appear in factories?
Some say AI should always be subservient. While today’s robots are tools, tomorrow’s may be much more. It’s important we all learn as much as we can about AI and robotics now. If we prepare ourselves with knowledge, we can later help shape a dignified human–machine future.
Did you know there's a robot out there that's already a citizen?
