Botsy wall-drawing robot solving the challenge of outlining large artwork with precision, making mural creation, signs, and designs faster and easier.

You can further enlarge the drawing area by adjusting the drawing machine’s position horizontally or vertically. This creates a tiled set of adjacent sketching areas, allowing you to make a large wall mural artwork. For example, this large mural was outlined in four sections and then hand-painted at the University of Florida. The Drawing Process...

Botsy, the best robot for large murals and signs, outlining a big wall mural at the University of Florida with precision and speed, saving artists valuable time.

According to a professional artist with a diploma from the San Francisco Art Institute (SFAI), Botsy speeds up the wall outlining process for complex vector art by up to 10 times.

Robot Drawing Speed: Our drawing tool isn’t designed for meditation—it works fast! The speed varies depending on your art project requirements, but at medium speed, Botsy efficiently transfers a detailed vector graphic (84 inches by 64 inches) onto the wall in just 25 to 30 minutes.

While Botsy works, you can work on other parts of your project. Prepare your paints, set up your workspace, or get started on another section of the mural.

The Botsy tool draws with marker at normal speed on the wall.

Draw and Erase with Ease: Looking to experiment, sketch a sample, or create temporary vector wall art? Botsy, designed for precision and speed as a professional tool, works seamlessly with commercial markers. While Scribit follows a different approach, Botsy ensures fast and effortless erasing—simply wash off the drawing with a moist sponge or cloth and wipe with paper towels. This makes it an efficient choice for artists who need quick adjustments or temporary designs, with no need for special markers with thermo-disappearing ink.

Pen and Marker Range: 0.35" - 0.86" (9mm - 22mm).

The drawing machine doesn’t require special or proprietary markers. Choose from a wide range of drawing tools, including permanent markers, dry-erase markers, washable markers, chalk, chalk markers, pencils, and more. Use the one you prefer for your drawing. For example, a standard Sharpie marker has a diameter of 0.47" (12mm), while a chalk marker has a diameter of 0.64" (16mm), and both easily fit into Botsy's pen holder.

Botsy and BotsyART models give artists creative freedom by allowing the use of various markers, chalks, and pencils without requiring exclusive supplies. Use what you like, in the colors you need.

Clearance from Pen Holder to the Wall: 1/2” (12.7mm)

Electrical Power Adapter: input 100 - 240VAC, output 12VDC 3A, UL certified

Weight: 4.0 lbs (1.8 kg) for BotsyART 86 and 3.4 lbs (1.5 kg) BotsyART 64
