Think of the endless possibility these robots unlock!

In helping us learn about the natural world, they give us infinite inspiration for innovation across fields and disciplines.

The Kilobot is an amazing tool for experimentation and discovery. Imagine if we brought this kind of technology into schools and used it to explore, first-hand, some of nature’s most fascinating phenomena. Better yet, what would happen if students were given the opportunity to experiment and create with the robots? What ideas would they come up with?

Nature can be our greatest source of inspiration. The more we learn about the incredible ways it works from the very smallest organisms to the largest ecosystems, the more we arm ourselves with the knowledge that can inform better decisions but spur on more creative innovation.

Stay beautiful & keep laughing
