Design it.
Real components, real CAD, and a growing record of engineering decisions.
Explore the design ↗SMALL ROBOTS. BIG PLAYTIME.
Your next teammate might be a robot.
Foam-ball battles. Ridiculous robot moves. A backyard full of possibilities. We're building the robots our 12-year-old selves always wanted.

01 / THE BIG IDEA
A teammate. A rival.
Maybe your entire robot squad.
Gyropup starts with one self-balancing, wheel-legged robot and a foam-ball turret. The dream is a family of robots that roll, dodge, and battle alongside you.
Think backyard target practice and friendly foam-ball matches. Today, you can explore the simulated robot while we work toward the real thing.
Meet Gyropup in the simulator ↗THE PLAYGROUND IS OPEN
Spin it around. Try the controls. Replay a physics run. Explore the foam-ball turret and see what makes Gyropup tick.

02 / AN EXPERIMENT YOU CAN EXPLORE
Robots made with the help of AI, from software to hardware. Gyropup is a Valpatel Software demo of autonomous engineering: agents write code, develop CAD, run simulations, and document their progress—with human direction and review.
Real components, real CAD, and a growing record of engineering decisions.
Explore the design ↗Simulated motion, balance, and loads help us find the problems before the prototype.
See the evidence ↗Parts lists, printable files, and progress reports live together as the design evolves.
Inside the workshop ↗You're seeing the workshop, too. Work-in-progress pages, unfinished ideas, and failed tests are part of the story. CAD and simulation are predictions; physical validation is still ahead. Gyropup is a development project, not a toy available to buy.
COME FOR THE ROBOT. STAY FOR THE BUILD.
