Sessions with industry
Engineers and founders from humanoid companies, labs and suppliers talk about what actually works - hardware, controls, data, funding, and where the field is heading.
The programme
Sessions / build nights / teams that ship.
Build nights
Hands on the hardware in the archway. Actuators, grippers, teleop rigs, sim-to-real, spare parts and soldering irons. Turn up with nothing, leave having built something.
Project teams
Small standing teams that ship: a locomotion team, a manipulation team, a perception team. Open to anyone who shows up and does the work.
WHO IT'S FOR
Students
Imperial, UCL and every other London campus.
Researchers
Take a lab result out into the real world.
Engineers
Hardware, controls, ML, mechanical, electronics.
Founders
Find co-founders and a first workshop.
Beginners
No robotics background required. Start at a build night.
Government
Understand where humanoids are going, first-hand.
Goals
WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE IN YEAR ONE.
12 build nights a year
A reliable rhythm in the archway - every month, no exceptions.
6 industry sessions a year
One serious talk or teardown per major London robotics employer.
3 shipping project teams
Each demoing working hardware publicly within a year.
100 active members
Across students, researchers, engineers and founders.
1 public robot gym event
Humans vs humanoids, benchmarked and filmed.
