Company Overview

UniSwarm is a French hardware company based in Clermont-Ferrand that designs and sells electronic boards for robotics, with a focus on embedded mobile robots. The company is registered as a SASU and was officially created in January 2019, growing out of the association work of the creator of Robotips, an earlier robotics project. Its creation was supported by the BUSI incubator, and it was first hosted at Pascalis, a startup hub in Clermont-Ferrand. About a month after incorporation, UniSwarm signed a partnership with electronics distributor Farnell and became an authorized design partner for Microchip. The company also works closely with the Institut Pascal research laboratory.

UniSwarm's main product family is uBoards, a line of industry-ready robot electronics organized in several series: UMC (Motion Control), USS (Smart Sensors), UPM (Power Management), UIO (Input/Output), UUC (Micro Computing), UDT (Developer Tools) and UGU (Global Usage). A representative product is the UMC1BDS32 motion controller with integrated power stage, which drives one brushless DC, brushed DC or stepper motor (or two DC motors) at 12-48 V nominal supply, delivering 15 A continuous and 32 A peak per output, for motors up to 750 W at 48 V. It communicates over CANopen (CAN and CAN FD) and isolated RS485, and accepts quadrature and dual SSI encoder inputs, with on-board current, back-EMF and temperature sensing. Datasheets, firmware manuals and EDS files are published on the company website.

Alongside the boards, UniSwarm provides uDevkit, a development kit, and offers custom board design and firmware development services. The company emphasizes open-source board support packages hosted on GitHub, open communication protocols and re-programmable firmware. RobotShop is listed as an official distributor of its products. Listed partners and supporters include Institut Pascal, Bpifrance, the Coboteam robotics network, the BUSI incubator, French Tech Clermont, French Fab Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes, and the Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region as a funder.
