ABOUT US

Our team of talented engineers and designers is changing the way our kids learn programming and robotics.
Robo Wunderkind is the first robot anyone can build.
We are embedding different electronics – sensors/motors/microcontrollers – into the cubes, so that even a 5 year old child can build its own robot and program it in an app.
