About Us

RoBeDo Robotics is a privately owned and operated mom and pop shop run out of William and Esmaa Self's Colorado home. We custom build many of our robots to order. Customer satisfaction ensures ours.

William Self's design experiments gained momentum in his first decade when he successfully built an indoor kite flyer. He went on to re-purpose myriad "found" things (sorry Mom) into whimsical wheeled vehicles. His favorite TV shows, The Jetsons and Lost in Space, instilled a love of robotics. Star Wars strengthened the obsession. Surprisingly, it took him to 1999 to build his first programmable robot. He has been designing programmable robots ever since. Read more about my robotics path.

William has over 12 years experience building robots, as well as more than 20 years of software product engineering experience.
