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

Meet HEXA, a multi-functional all-terrain robot. It is easy to control with your mobile devices – it can walk and climb, take photos and videos, check your backyards, and dance to the beat! You can connect to HEXA anywhere with its WiFi. Plus, with HEXA, you can create the applications you dream of. Besides the hardware parts, HEXA comes with an OS, open-source SDK, and a 3D simulator. So play, learn, and be creative with HEXA; it is more than just a robot.

Robots are THE next big platform. We’ve all dreamed of a world where robots interact with and help humans daily. 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.
