Summary
Petar Crnjak is a founder and mechatronics engineer with 8 years of hands-on experience building accessible robotics solutions, currently leading Source Robotics from Zagreb. He combines embedded R&D expertise from Stark Electronics with QA automation foundations at E.G.O.-Group to deliver reliable, production-ready robotic arms aimed at the same usability leap as consumer 3D printers. With a strong academic background (BSc with 4.5 GPA and ongoing MSc in Mechatronics) he bridges mechanical, electrical and software domains to ship integrated systems. Petar emphasizes practical, user-focused design—making complex automation approachable for hobbyists and small manufacturers alike. His public persona and GitHub-minded mission (“Robotics for everyone”) reflect a commitment to open, community-driven hardware and iterative product development. Unusually for a founder, he retains deep embedded firmware skills alongside system-level product thinking, enabling rapid prototyping through to commercialization.
