It's an unfortunate truth that robot developers spend far too much time building robots and not enough time programming them. People get into robotic development because they are excited by the challenge and adventure of creating an intelligent machine that can respond to it's environment and perform tasks that mimic human behavior.

What many people find out very fast after entering the world of robotics is that their time becomes consumed by the minute mechanical details of building the physical robot. Instead of having fun programming robotic behaviors and task routines developers find themselves searching the internet endlessly looking for motors and pillow block bearings. Where's the fun in that?

Trossen Robotics has always chosen our line of mechanical components with flexibility and the modular concept in mind. Keeping with our founding philosophy that a good robotics company doesn't box in their customers with singular designs we have carefully chosen mechanical solutions that give the most freedom to our developers.
