About the Collective
Founded in 2023, our collective brings together the brightest minds in robotics.
Founded in 2023 as Open Robotic Metaverse, we quickly spotted a critical gap: Aachen's vibrant robotics community was booming, yet efforts remained scattered — labs, startups, and student teams often advancing the same problems in parallel, thus reinventing the wheels.
Robotics Collective . was reborn to close that gap by uniting academic groups, industry experts, and passionate individuals in an open, collaborative ecosystem.
