Cubotix’s LEGO Self-Driving Car Featured in Makezine.com

Rover is a true crowd pleaser and he didn’t fail to deliver at this year’s Maker Faire in San Mateo. The press loves him just as much as he’s featured in Makezine.com.

Missed the event? Don’t fret! You can watch this talk by Cubotix founder Martin Wojtczyk as it was given live at Maker Faire (ok you missed the awesome flying drones but you can catch that next year).

Maker Faire – “The Greatest Show and Tell on Earth” is coming up this weekend on May 17 & 18 in San Mateo, California. This is the original and the biggest Maker Faire of them all and we are very excited to be part of it. Devy and I received an invitation to showcase Rover – our little award-winning, autonomous LEGO robot over the weekend. Come and say hi to Rover in the Expo hall (south).

Demoing at several conferences and engagements throughout the U.S. and Europe allowed us to see that Rover sparked significant interest and curiosity from a diverse age range of people across a variety of industries. So we decided to enter Rover in Robot Launch, a global robotics startup competition with judges from major investment and venture capital firms, successful robotics entrepreneurs, IP lawyers, designers, and engineering consultants. We are proud that Rover made it to the top 30! Go Rover!
