Mission
Fictionlab is dedicated to radically shortening the time-to-deploy for academic and industrial robotics projects. We bridge the gap between concept and operation by supplying professional, adaptable UGV chassis ready for complex integrations. Our engineering expertise allows researchers to bypass mechanical hurdles and achieve validation faster.
Vision
We see a world where complex robotics is accessible to every innovator, from university labs to space agencies. Fictionlab strips away the unnecessary complexity of hardware development. We provide the rugged, open backbone for your research, allowing you to bypass mechanical struggles and focus entirely on solving the world's hardest problems.
This is us
Meet the team behind the world’s most hackable research & development rovers.

Błażej Sowa
Lead Robotics Software Engineer
I specialize in end-to-end robotics development, covering everything from low-level signal processing and embedded programming to high-level multi-robot system architecture. Obsessed with the reproducibility and reliability of software (I'm the reason our CI has so many linters. You're welcome.). Aside from work, metal drumming enthusiast and a gym freak.
Jan Hernas
Robotics Software Engineer
My passion for robotics runs deep, evolving from small-scale personal projects to full-scale professional systems. I love seeing lines of code come to life in the physical world. In my spare time, I am applying my engineering skills to game development and VR.
Kacper Kaleta
Robotics Engineer
I just like doing stuff. Be it building robots, taking apart old equipment, making cosplay props or photography. As long as my hands are occupied I'm having a good time.
Krzysztof Piechota
Robotics Engineer
I like building robots and making them work perfectly. Mechanics is my main field, but I care about the entire system. When I’m not engineering something, I’m probably climbing or working on a new side project.
Maksymilian Wiśniewski
Robotics Engineer
I thrive on assembly, design, and creative problem-solving. My passion for drawing and painting complements my technical work perfectly. I believe great results happen when precision meets an artistic touch.
Piotr Szlachcic
CEO
My mission is to make robotics as accessible and simple as possible. With 10 years of experience bringing mobile robots from concept to market deployment in industrial inspection, agriculture, research, and education
