Modular Robots

Building a Robot with CellRobot is Like Snapping Together Tennis Balls (+Video)

Aliya Barnwell | October 13, 2015

What kind of robot would you build if you didn't have to bother with soldering, chassis construction, or coding? What if you could take it apart and use the same pieces to build something else? Imagine having the versatility of Voltron without annoying little people inside. CellRobot up on Kickstarter right now, gives you that kind of freedom (blazing sword not included).
The device is exactly what it sounds like: robotic cells that can be assembled into a wide variety of different robots. Each cell has a 360 degree angle sensor, servo motor, and microcontroller -- and can connect to any other cell at practically any angle thanks to a round snap joint system.
