University of Pennsylvania-housed GRASP Laboratory may likely be the city’s only incubator that produces things that actually fly.

That’s because GRASP — which stands for General Robotics Automation, Sensing and Perception — incubates robotics startups inside Penn’s engineering complex near 33rd and Walnut in University City.

Inside the lab, which is also home to Penn’s robotics research, you’ll find soccer playing humanoids, flying drones, and all kinds of other robots, as FastCompany reported.
