Bitcraze AB
Swedish open-source drone company founded in 2011 in Malmo, best known for the Crazyflie nano quadcopter used in robotics research and education worldwide.
Bitcraze AB was founded in 2011 in Malmo, Sweden, by the engineers who created the Crazyflie nano quadcopter project, which originated in 2009. The company designs and manufactures the Crazyflie family of nano drones — small, lightweight, open-source quadcopters intended for safe indoor use in research, development, and educational environments. The Crazyflie 2.1 is the current primary platform, weighing only 27 grams and supporting a modular expansion deck system that enables add-ons for LiDAR, optical flow, AI processing, and multi-robot swarming.
Bitcraze also produces the Crazyradio PA wireless interface, the Loco Positioning System for indoor localization, and a suite of open-source firmware, Python libraries, and simulation tools. The platform is widely used by university research groups for swarm robotics, control algorithm development, and indoor autonomous flight experiments. The Crazyflie ecosystem supports integration with ROS, MATLAB, and Simulink, making it a standard research platform across dozens of institutions globally.
