Modular Robotics

Modular Robotics is an educational technology company based in Boulder, Colorado, founded in 2008 as a spin-off from Carnegie Mellon University.

The company designs and manufactures Cubelets, the first modular robot blocks that allow users to create complex robots by connecting small, interlocking, programmable cubes. Cubelets are 40mm plastic cubes equipped with magnetic connectors, sensors, logic processors, and actuator blocks, enabling users to build robots that can respond to various stimuli without any coding or wiring. In addition to Cubelets, Modular Robotics offers MOSS, a system that uses steel sphere connectors to expand building possibilities. The company also introduced Cubelets Console, a software platform that enhances user interaction with the hardware. Modular Robotics focuses on hands-on STEM education, teaching robotics, engineering, design thinking, and computational thinking to learners of all ages. Its products are sold internationally through online sales and educational resellers, reaching homes and classrooms worldwide. The company is committed to fostering critical learning through play-based exploration and innovation in educational robotics.
