Pedro is a simple, open-source robot designed for education with a STEM spirit that introduces students to electronics, robotics, and coding. Classroom-ready Pedro makes learning robotics and programming fun and hands-on. Built with educators in mind, Pedro is easy to assemble, 3D printable, and requires no screws or tools, making it the perfect fit for schools, makerspaces, and coding clubs.
The very first Pedro robot was born built using 3D-printed parts and a simplified electronics board designed for students and makers. Pedro took its first steps toward making robotics education more accessible.
MORE Pedro won the “My Innovation in 120 Seconds” competition thanks to its impact during educational workshops.
Recognized for its simplicity and innovation in teaching STEM in Africa.
In March 2025, Pedro’s vision came to life through a successful Kickstarter campaign reaching 268% of its funding goal. Thanks to our amazing backers, Pedro is now ready for classrooms worldwide.
MOREPedro's body is fully 3D-printable. All STL files are available under open-source license.
morePedro features three planetary gear system modules, fully 3D-printed. These modules enable smooth and precise movements, powered by continuous rotation servo motors placed at the center of each joint.
moreAll of its components are designed to be 3D printed, and the robot can be assembled without any tools, offering a hands-on and accessible experience for users of all levels.
moreA compact, efficient, and Arduino-compatible custom board designed to easily bring your Pedro Robot to life.
moreAll-in-One Educational Robot Equipped with four mini servo motors and powered by a custom Arduino-compatible board, Pedro is designed for learning and experimentation. It offers four control modes.
morePedro is fully open-source hardware, software, and 3D files. Making it ideal for learning, modifying, and sharing in educational environments. Full documentation & files available on the Pedro GitHub page.
Pedro runs on a rechargeable 7.4V battery and supports multiple wireless modes: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and RF perfect for classroom mobility.
All mechanical parts can be 3D printed with standard FDM printers, making it cost-effective and reproducible anywhere.
From hardware add-ons to code modifications, Pedro grows with your projects. Ideal for introducing students to real-world prototyping.
Pedro is designed to snap together without screws or tools perfect for younger learners and fast classroom setup.
Pedro is Arduino-compatible and supports block-based or code-based learning ideal for all skill levels.
