Playtime with Crappy Happy Robots

Maker Faire Bay Area 2024

October 18th-20th

Coal Shed 2 Exhibit RoboticsRibbon Recipient

Come play with our robot friends as they try to flap and wave and spin around. Maybe they don’t always “work”, but they do always play.

This year the (Very Small) Robot Choir is returning, along with new and old rolling friends in the robot playpen, in addition to some new jellyfish friends in their own eternal ocean. Program your own unique tiny robot musical performance by coloring in a paper grid, play with robots in the playpen by tilting their controllers, or gaze into a mysteriously deep aquarium with undulating robotic jellyfish.

Our goal is to show kids that there is more to robotics than battle bots and race cars (as cool as they are), because we think that if more young artists grow up and build silly goofy robots in sweaters the world will be a better place.

Crappy Happy Robots

We are a group of friends and families that like to make stuff and share the fun. Robotics, cosplay, halloween props, giant bubbles, novels, quilts, video games, apple pie, if you are doing something with your hands you are learning.
