HEXA – A Six-Legged, Agile and Highly Adaptable Robot

Meet HEXA, a six-legged, agile, highly adaptable robot that’s got more gusto than you can imagine. HEXA delivers you with the ideal hardware and software platform to learn and explore robotics. Start creating the robot functionality you’ve always envisioned.

Robots are THE next big platform. We’ve all dreamed of a world where robots interact with and help humans in their daily lives. But the reality is, robots have a long way to go. Limited access — robots are either too expensive and complex isolated to a lab or too simplistic, a child’s toy — has kept innovators, explorers and the masses at bay.

Robots need to be accessible to the many, not the few. Only then will we see the robot revolution.
