Why Choose Matris Robotic?

Empowering children to become the innovators and entrepreneurs of tomorrow.

Founded in 2012 by university lecturers and robotics researchers from UCL and the University of Kent, Matris Robotic brings together academic expertise, innovative technology, and hands-on learning to make Robotics and AI education accessible to children aged 5–16.
Our unique educational ecosystem combines robotics hardware, expert-designed curricula, and our Matris Method, integrating coding and robotics to help children understand, create, and experiment with technology.
Through building their own robots and games, tackling challenges, and learning through play and friendly competition, children develop essential skills in creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork.
At Matris Robotic, children don’t just learn about technology, they learn to create it. Our mission is to inspire the next generation of innovators, equipping young learners with the skills, confidence, and entrepreneurial mindset to shape the future.
