About Pollen Robotics – Reachy by Pollen Robotics, an open source programmable humanoid robot

From the Lab to the real world

Pollen Robotics was founded by Matthieu and Pierre, two former developmental robotics lab researchers in the Flowers team from the reknown French research center Inria.

Working together for more than 10 years, Pierre and Matthieu have always been motivated by making robots accessible and useful in the real world. This goal led them to several worldwide sucesses such as Poppy, the first 3D printed open source humanoid robot.

What we do

User interaction is at the heart of our design: our robots are able to evolve in a complex and unconstrained world where man-robot understanding and mutual acceptance are necessary.

We bring simple, elegant and user-friendly design to our customers so they can stay focused on their own applications of AI robotics.
