ROBOPAWS
Where Children Learn Engineering by Building Life
An educational robotics initiative empowering middle school students to explore STEM through hands-on quadruped robots inspired by real animals.
Why We Built RoboPaws
Many students encounter STEM through abstract formulas and screens — but rarely through something they can touch, build, and emotionally connect with.
RoboPaws was founded to change that.
By combining robotics, biology-inspired design, and hands-on learning, RoboPaws turns engineering into a tangible, joyful experience — especially for students who have never imagined themselves as “technical.”
Meet RoboPaws
An Educational Quadruped Robot
RoboPaws is a quadrupedal robot designed as an open, educational platform, not just a machine. Inspired by real animal skeletal structures, RoboPaws helps students understand how mechanics, electronics, and algorithms come together to create movement — just like in nature.
This video presents a quadruped robot used as a technical reference and learning benchmark for the Robopaws project.
At Robopaws, students design and develop their own quadruped robots inspired by open-source and student-built systems, advancing them through independent engineering work, CAD modeling, and programming.
