The Maker Atlas

The whole landscape, as a graph you can walk.

Physical AI making doesn't happen in one place — it's a web of ecosystems, boards, open-source projects, and research, all referencing each other. The Maker Atlas maps that web as typed nodes and edges you can search and follow, the same living-knowledge-graph approach behind the Institute's Intelligence map.

What's on the map

Four kinds of node, and the edges between them.

Follow a board to the builds that use it, an ecosystem to its projects, a project to the research it came from.

Ecosystems

The platforms

Bambu / CyberBrick, ESP32, Arduino, ROS, LeRobot — the toolchains and communities makers build on.

Boards

The brains

Every board from Digital Brains, as nodes you can trace to the builds and ecosystems that use them.

Projects

The work

Open-source robots and libraries on GitHub, and the academic projects behind them.

Builds

Our designs

The maker builds on this site, linked to the brains, prints, and policies they draw on.

The live graph

Interactive map, wiring up.

◱ Building The searchable, full-bleed graph is being assembled on the same engine as the Institute's Intelligence Atlas. The node schema above is the seed; the ecosystems and open projects are being catalogued now.
