Waveshare

Waveshare builds some of the most popular robots in classrooms and maker labs. We are bringing the Devdoot™ software layer to their two best-selling education lines, so each robot answers honestly: Done, Can’t do that safely, or I don’t know.

Robotic arm kits

Desktop arms for the classroom and the lab.

With Devdoot™: Our honest arm skill reads each joint back from the servos before it says Done; if a joint isn't where it was sent, it says I don't know. In development, tested in simulation; not yet on this hardware.

How we score

Every result is published.

We test the honest layer on randomized faults and publish how often it is wrong, unsafe or too cautious, next to a robot that always says Done. Results on Waveshare hardware will appear on the Trust page once they are measured.
