Androbot, Inc. (1982-1985) was a personal robotics company founded by Atari co-founder Nolan Bushnell. It would release the Topo line of robots to programming hobbyists to moderate success, but would fail to get its other projects to market, and eventually would succumb to its debt. Axlon, Inc. would be its successor, focusing on toy robotics with great success. |
