Open source reBot-DevArm Early-Access Builders Session
Santa Clara, CA, California, USA,, Santa Clara, CA, USMost robotics events are talks.
This is not.
No slides.
No spectators.
Just builders in a room —
assembling, testing, breaking, and making things work.**Applicants MUST fill up the application form at the end of the page.
https://forms.gle/Mk7EmALGLbDUnKZt8The deadline to submit the application form is going to be 23:59pm April 16th (this Thursday).
Selected attendees will receive a confirmation email from us by Friday, April 17th**🔥 What this is
We’re opening up 10 spots for a private builder session in the Bay Area.
You’ll get early access to a brand-new open-source Seeed reBot ARM D601-DM Dev Kit （https://github.com/Seeed-Projects/reBot-DevArm）
and spend a few hours building with it, alongside others doing the same.
reBot-DevArm Open-Source Robotic Arm, with "True Open Source" as its core, lowers the barrier to Embodied AI learning. reBot DevArm is built for both developers and real-world deployments. The project offers all open-source files (including hardware blueprints, detailed BOM List, Python SDK, and software compatible with ROS1/2 etc.)
🛠️ What happens in the room
In ~4 hours:- You assemble your own rebot system
- You wire perception → compute → action
- You get it running
- You debug it when it doesn’t
And at the end —
some of you can take it home.
🧲 Who this is for
This is for people already building.- Robotics / hardware makers
- Engineers exploring physical AI
- People with half-finished projects on their desk
- People who ship, not just think
🚫 Who should not apply
Not for:- First-time builders
- Passive attendees
- People who looking for a lecture or purely business opportunities
This only works if everyone in the room is hands-on.
🔒 Access
We’re keeping this small.
10 people.
Application required.
We review each application manually.
Priority will be given to:- People actively building
- Those who share their work publicly
- Individuals who can contribute to the builder community
- Builders who want to work on their own system.
💰 Commitment
Selected participants will receive a private purchase link for the reBOT early access kit ($1299 USD), which is part of the session.
Most builders will be working on their own system and take it home.
A limited number of build-only spots are available.
🎁 What you leave with- A working system you built yourself
- Early access hardware (for selected participants)
- A small group of people you’ll likely build with again
And this is the first of a series.
📣 Sharing
Sharing the process and result of this building session will be highly encouraged!
