by Robolink
Robolink is a San Diego-based educational robotics company that produces low-cost, Arduino-compatible robot kits designed to teach coding, electronics, and engineering to students from middle school through college. The Zowi is Robolink's entry-level biped walking robot — a snap-together kit requiring no soldering that introduces students to robotics fundamentals including sensor integration, motor control, and Bluetooth communication. Students program the Zowi using either visual block coding (Scratch-like) for beginners or Arduino C++ for more advanced learners, providing an on-ramp that grows with student skill levels. Robolink's product line extends to drones (CoDrone Pro and EDU), robot arms (Dobot-compatible), and advanced rover platforms, making it a curriculum-complete solution for robotics programs. The Zowi is used in schools and robotics clubs across 40+ countries. At $80–$150, it is one of the most affordable entry points into hands-on robotics programming education.
