The Evolution of Trossen Robotic Arms | With Matt Trossen

Apr 24, 2025
From Garage Builds to Global Labs: The Evolution of Trossen Arms 🚀🦾
Join Matt Trossen, founder of Trossen Robotics, on a time-traveling teardown through the evolution of our robotic arms! In this deep dive, Matt unboxes the ghosts of robots past—sharing behind-the-scenes stories, bold design decisions, lessons learned, and how the industry itself has shifted gears.

Whether you're a robotics nerd, a maker at heart, or just curious how we went from bolt-together kits to AI-powered manipulators used by the world's top researchers, this is your backstage pass.

👀 See old models, rare prototypes, and the a-ha moments that shaped the arms changing the future of embodied AI.

🔧 Hear how we built smarter, stronger, and more accessible robots—with the bumps and bruises to prove it.

🧠 Get insight into how simplicity, pragmatism, and a bit of chaos shaped the tools now used at Google DeepMind, Stanford, and beyond.

This isn’t just a company history—it’s a love letter to iteration. And it’s got Matt. Enough said.
