Modular Robotics

Modular Robotics is an educational technology company that creates robot blocks designed to build better thinkers through STEM education, design, and coding. The company develops systems that let users build robots out of lots of tiny robots, fostering problem-solving skills including collaboration, engineering, and computational thinking. Their robot blocks are versatile tools used by educators and learners to explore robotics concepts through hands-on construction and programming. The modular design enables users to snap together different functional blocks, each containing sensors, motors, or logic capabilities, to create robots with varying behaviors and capabilities. This approach makes robotics accessible to young learners while teaching fundamental programming and engineering principles. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, Modular Robotics has raised approximately $9.1 million through Series A funding from the National Science Foundation and Foundry.
