Trossen Robotics
US robotics company founded 2005, specializing in research and educational robotic arms (Interbotix X-Series), servo kits, and AI/ML hardware platforms.
Trossen Robotics was founded in 2005 by Matt Trossen and is headquartered in Downers Grove, Illinois. The company is a specialist retailer and manufacturer focused on research-grade and educational robotics hardware, with a primary emphasis on robotic manipulators and servo-based systems.
The company's flagship product line, Interbotix, covers modular robotic arms in 4, 5, and 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) configurations, with payload capacities ranging from 50 g to 750 g across models. All Interbotix arms are built around the Dynamixel X-Series servo ecosystem and are compatible with ROS and ROS 2 out of the box, with open-source software available via their documentation portal at docs.trossenrobotics.com. Models include the PincherX 100, ReactorX 150, WidowX 200, WidowX 250, and ViperX 300 series, differing in reach, payload, and DOF.
Trossen Robotics also sells hexapod robot kits featuring 18 programmable Dynamixel servos, as well as complete AI research workstations marketed under the Trossen AI platform — high-performance desktop computers configured for machine learning and embodied AI research tasks.
The company supplies hardware to major research institutions including Google DeepMind, Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University, and MIT, as well as to Fortune 100 technology companies. It is a recognized distributor and integrator for Robotis Dynamixel servo products in North America.
In addition to hardware, Trossen offers lifetime customer support, detailed documentation, and tutorials covering ROS integration, inverse kinematics, and Python APIs for all major product lines.
Trossen Robotics operates primarily as an e-commerce and direct-sales business, serving the education, academic research, and early-stage robotics development markets.
