About
Roli was one of EZ-Robot Inc.'s tracked classroom robots, positioned for STEM education, programming practice, and experimentation with onboard behaviors. It was designed around a modular platform that could be expanded with accessories such as grippers and sensors, and it supported features including object tracking, speech recognition, AI, and machine learning.
EZ-Robot promoted Roli alongside its broader educational robotics ecosystem, where users could build projects through a graphical programming environment and control the robot from connected devices. The model was later discontinued, reflecting the shifting pace of the educational robotics market and the company’s product changes over time.
