Advancing Robotics, Machine Design, and Actuation

Deep expertise in humanoid robotics, applied directly to your most difficult machine and mechanism problems.

Who We Are

We are a team of specialists who genuinely love robots and mechanisms. We like building cool things, both at work and in our own lives. We provide end-to-end engineering services driven by three core beliefs:

  • First-Principles Engineering: The most complex hardware challenges usually fall back to basic principles. We break problems down to their core physics and mechanics to engineer the cleanest, most efficient solution.

  • Lean & Multidisciplinary: Our team members are deeply curious and knowledgable in many tangential fields. We deliver results quickly by working together with a cohesive understanding of the entire system.

  • Intentional Reliability: We carry our first-principles approach all the way through to our builds, focusing on smart component selection over needlessly expensive parts. By putting in the rigorous upfront work, we build robust machines that work the first time, eliminating the need to iterate in loops.
