Modular Robotics

Modular Robotics makes robot construction kits made of modular magnetic blocks that can be assembled to create small self-powered robots. They combine sensors, logic, and actuator blocks that young kids can use to create simple reconfigurable robots that exhibit surprisingly complex behavior. Cubelets are 40mm plastic cubes with magnetic connectors; just pick them up and start building. MOSS connects using steel spheres and lets kids make robots that slither, drive, and glow. It was founded in 2008 and is based in Boulder, Colorado.
