Roboreptile
The Robotics Range is constantly evolving. The perfect fusion of
technology and personality. Invented by a NASA scientist, Mark
Tilden the Robotics have more moves, more attitude, more
functions, and more fun than ever!
I met a Roboreptile at
London Zoo
Reptiles in a tank in London Zoo went face-to face with the
first ever robotic lizard on Tuesday. Roboreptile - made by the
same people as Robosapien - was put in a tank with real-life
lizards to see how they would react to each other. Press Packer
James was there to see what happened.
The iguana eating some banana out of Roboreptile's mouth.
"The first thing I thought when I saw the Roboreptile was that
it looked quite funky for a lizard as it has black and white
stripes! I wasn't sure what would happen but I thought it might
be attacked by the real lizards.
Instead what happened was that
the real ones looked at the robot and seemed quite shocked. I
don't think they were used to having a stranger in their tank.
Then the remote control was used to make Roboreptile move and
scream which made the little lizards run away as they didn't
like it! They stayed away and were very still after that.
The iguana, which was bigger and not as scared, was just
pacing around. When someone from the zoo put a piece of banana
in Roboreptile's mouth, the iguana ate it! They got Roboreptile
to perform his different modes with the remote control.
They made him look angry and then calmed it
down before taking it out. Afterwards, I got to play with it
outside while it was roaming around. I thought it was really
good." James, 10, Letchworth.

Fun enough....
A bargain at this price, its 90 quid in Argos !! Not the fastest
of movers, but has a good tail swish and a variety of actions -
my 8 year old was well pleased with it.
Great fun for a few
hours - Some good features
First off - I believe this would make a good
gift or gadget for some people.
In my opinion, the Roboreptile has some very good features and
is very clever with its sensors located around its head. Plus
its tail is very life-like.
The only disappointment, was that it hardly moves. On a thin
carpet or vinyl floor, on standing walk or on all fours, this
was the only let down for me.
I haven't personally seen the other products similar in its
range (RoboRaptor, RoboPet etc) but if they are as entertaining
and move a bit quicker, I would put the extra pennies together
and get one of them
