Robosapien

Feisty, moody and filled with personality, Robosapien is a humanoid with attitude that comes to life at your command and performs amazing tasks. Using the ergonomic remote control, you can command Robosapien to perform up to 67 pre-programmed functions including pick-up, throw, high-five, whistle, dance and three different karate moves. Robosapien is fully programmable.

He can perform a programmed chain of commands in any combination of moves that you select. For example, you can create your own dance sequence or program him to walk straight, turn left and give your buddy a high five. The fully articulated Robosapien fluid biomechanical movements and pendulum walking motion makes his movements appear more human than robotic. This attribute separates Robosapien from less sophisticated entertainment toy robots on the market.

Robosapien's impressive flexibility is evident as he walks in two different speeds, dances and easily handles 180 degree turns. Robosapien comes equipped with two types of three pronged grippers, ribbed for increased traction. He can pick up objects such as cups, socks, pencils and other small light objects.

Sure to keep you on your toes, Robosapien reacts to both touch and sound signals from his environment. His Interactive Reflex System (IRF) uses a total of six sensors strategically located throughout his body to detect obstructions. Sensors in his feet allow him to recognize and avoid obstacles without help, as he moves backwards or forwards with ease. Select one of his sensor programs and Robosapien will respond to a sharp sound or to touch.

Its ALIVE!Picked this up cheap as the poor thing had been superseded by a taller model. Still he perfectly fitted in with our family on Xmas day, what with the constant burping, breaking of wind and rather laboured waddling. Not sure how much he'll be used once his second set of batteries run out but I suspect he may not end up broken at the bottom of the toy box because he's incredibly heavy and strong. Plus my little lad loves programming him - which amazes me because he's only four. So there you go, educational too.

More fun for 12 months than can be imagined creating a course 0f objects (cans of beanz and yoghurt pots) that have to be moved around and/or picked up and moved - gives great planning & measuring times for kids and adults up to age 62 here !!!! not bored after a year ! Highly recommended for kids to learn basic logic of EVERY COMMAND no matter how small in programming.
