Scientists, hackers
Accessible, open-source, hackable. Major strengths for experimentation and sharing of knowledge and expertise.
The Poppy community develops robotic creations that are easy to build, customize, deploy, and share.
It promotes open-source by sharing hardware, software, and web tools.
Poppy Robots
Poppy Humanoid
Poppy Humanoid is the flagship creature. It is aesthetic, modular, and parametric. From a single arm to the complete humanoid, this platform is actively used in labs, engineering schools, FabLabs, and artistic projects.
Poppy Torso
Poppy Torso is a simplified version of Poppy Humanoid. Cheaper, layable on a desk, it is particularly suitable for classroom use, in fablabs or in all kinds of public events.
Ergo Jr
With its six engines, Ergo Jr is the most accessible Poppy robot. It is cheap, portable and easily customizable. Perfectly suited to beginners and younger, it is a good introduction to robotics through a series of turnkey activities.
