  • Company Description
    We make robot construction kits for kids. Modular Robotics is a new company, a spin-off from Carnegie Mellon University. We are turning our research prototype construction toy into a commercial product for science centers, children’s museums, and hobbyists, and we’re planning to launch our first robotic kits in 2011. We have received initial funding from private endowments and from the National Science Foundation. We believe that toys shape the way that children think about the world.
