RoboCob can simulate jumps up to 1.20 meters, elevating equestrian training with instant feedback through integrated screens.


Scotland’s Rural College (SRUC) has debuted a state-of-the-art robotic horse in a leap forward for equestrian education. This cutting-edge creation is set to advance the way equestrian students undergo training, offering a meticulously crafted and technologically advanced solution.

Named RoboCob by students and developed in association with Chesire-based Racewood Equestrian Simulators, the £100,000 machine stands as the first of its kind in the country, promising a secure yet highly effective platform for riders to refine their jumping techniques and master dressage skills. Boasting the capability to simulate jumps of up to 1.20 meters, RoboCob takes equestrian training to new heights by providing immediate feedback through its integrated screens.
