Welcome to the Vorpal Robotics Wiki

Here you'll find information about projects and products from Vorpal Robotics, LLC, including technical information, free downloads, classroom activity ideas, and more!

Vorpal Robotics is dedicated to creating fun, interactive, classroom and teacher friendly robotics products based on open source technologies and 3D printing. We sell kits as well as fully built robots that can support STEM activities from grade school through middle- and high-school. All of our projects are open source, meaning we provide all the source code and source 3D models free of charge. This allows you to remix, hack, and modify our projects to your heart's content.

Vorpal Projects

Our projects combine 3D printing along with electronics to help you create amazing things. Most of our projects are available as economical "Maker Kits" that do not include the 3D printed parts. If you don't have access to a 3D printer, we also typically do provide the 3D printed parts in optional "Complete" kits. The WIKI entries for each project provide build instructions, links to source code and source 3D models, classroom and activity ideas, and more!

Popular Components For Your Projects

We also sell parts that are generally useful for robotics and electronics based projects that may or may not include 3D printed structures. Here are a few of the most popular, a complete list is on the [Vorpal Robotics Store]

What's With the Funny Names?

The word Vorpal comes from the classic Lewis Carroll nonsense poem Jaberwocky. The word Vorpal represents a powerful weapon used to slay an evil monster, the fearsome Jabberwock. To us, it symbolizes using powerful technologies to solve problems. See Jaberwocky by Lewis Carroll.
