Buffalo Bytes are a small, highly mobile robot platform.
Each Buffalo Byte is capable of locomotion, control,
and communication and new functionalities can be easily integrated.

Jumping microrobots and insects power their impressive leaps through
systems of springs and latches. Using springs and latches rather than motors
or muscles as actuators to power jumps imposes new challenges on controlling the
performance of the jump.

Many of the projects in the lab require custom hardware, including PCBs. Our gallery of silkscreen art is available here
