Is "Salem" a tongue-in-cheek nod to being a small, quirky competitor to Boston Dynamics (Salem, MA : Boston, MA :: Salem Robotics : Boston Dynamics)?

If so, as someone who lives close to Salem, I like it :)

Good luck to you guys.



Haha it wasn't, but we might steal that for our story going forward.


is this based in Salem MA? If so, nice


Cofounder here. we're based in Austin, TX, but yes, the name alludes to Salem MA. We're bringing inanimate objects to life through robotics, haha.


First thing I thought of too, I love it


Salem Statics


Boston Dynamics vs Salem Statics, haha. Seriously though, we are very complimentary to BD, since Spot is one of the platforms we deploy on.
