About
JD is a humanoid robot kit developed by EZ-Robot Inc. for STEM education, classroom use, and hobby robotics. It was introduced as part of EZ-Robot's modular ecosystem, combining a humanoid frame with the company's software tools for drag-and-drop programming and behavior creation.
The kit was designed to support a range of interactions including object tracking, speech recognition, custom movements, and prebuilt actions such as dances and gymnastics. JD also incorporated RGB LED eyes and was positioned as a platform for learning robotics concepts through assembly, control, and behavior programming rather than as a consumer companion robot.
