About Us
As with many engineering stories, our journey starts with LEGO...
LEGO robot by Felipe, 1990's
The name Robots5 originates from an essay written 30 years ago by our founder, Felipe.
The essay explored the accessibility of knowledge and technology across the globe. In the essay, "Robots" represented technology and "5" symbolized the number of continents recognized at the time.
Founded in 2020, Robots5 LLC develops and manufactures the Electro-Mechanical Breadboard system (EMB), designed for hands-on prototyping, teaching, and research.
Our headquarters is located in Oviedo, FL (near Orlando, USA).
Felipe Depine holds both B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on Dynamic Systems and Control from the Florida Institute of Technology (USA).
​
Prior to founding Robots5, Felipe led mechanical engineering development for several robotics companies, including Bossa Nova Robotics (Pittsburgh, PA) and Vecna Robotics (Boston, MA). He has worked as an engineer in the robotics industry for over a decade.
