Robolink launches CoDrone EDU, a programmable drone that makes learning to code fun. Designed for grades 6 and up, CoDrone was created for middle schoolers and is teaming up with camps and classrooms across the country to teach kids how to code.

“Children learn best when it’s something they’re excited about,” said Hansol Hong, CEO of Robolink. “At home or in the classroom, children can fly, dive, and perform airborne flips before coding even begins. Once they’ve piloted the drone, they can become drone coders and learn real-world STEM skills.”

This is Robolink’s fifth Kickstarter campaign since 2015. The San Diego-based technology company’s last four successful campaigns raised up to 500 percent above goals.

CoDrone EDU, the newest obstacle-detecting, color-sensing, airborne flipping, portable drone, is perfect in a classroom setting. CoDrone has programmable lights, flight patterns, and access to seven sensors. Integrating fun with coding, CoDrone EDU is an excellent way to learn 21st century technical skills. CoDrone EDU offers a free curriculum using codes in both Blockly and Python, and free online lessons for students and lesson plans for teachers.

Robolink uses cutting-edge technology to create interactive and fun robotics kits that teach coding and engineering in a way that’s exciting to children and teenagers. With learning centers in San Diego, and in schools all over the country, and internationally, Robolink teaches artificial intelligence (AI), coding, and engineering, while working with teachers all over the world.
