Description
LOW PRICE! Roboquad SAVES YOU £30.00 NOW!
RRP £79.95 NOW £49.95 38% DISCOUNT!
Try to imagine a cross between some manic robot from Starship Troopers and robot No 5 from that strange film in the eighties whose name escapes me, and your halfway to getting what Roboquad is about. More fun than a puppy, and considerably cheaper and less messy, this nutty bot has more personality than a reality TV contestant (admittedly that's not much of a challenge) and dances better than pretty well anyone over the age of 30. I'm sitting in a hotel room in Tokyo at four in the morning nursing a sake befuddled head (out here looking for more weird and wonderful gadgets), and wondering why I'm here when Roboquad seems about as weird and wonderful as it gets.
This daft quadruped has multi-articulated legs that enable him to dash about in a thoroughly engaging way, avoiding obstacles and reacting to sound. He has three programmable personalities, 72 pre-programmed functions, 40 programmable moves, and has an infrared scanner vision system which assesses distance and obstacles. His internal sound system blasts out a series of bizarre noises, as well as music which he dances to, accompanied by multi-coloured flashing lights, and of course, unlike a puppy, he comes with a remote control unit so you can stop him running off down the stairs dragging loo paper all over the house. All in all he's the perfect, fully interactive pre-programmed pet.
Features
An interactive, robotic arthropod.
Interacts with his environment- scanning and avoiding obstacles.
Rotating legs and an articulated neck.
Roboquad can be autonomous or directly controlled.
You can control Roboquad's walking style: 'Crab Walk', 'Stomp Walk' or 'Rotation Walk'.
You can control Roboquad's head movements. Behaviour is influenced by 3 controllable personality settings: 'Activity', 'Aggression', and 'Awareness'.
72 pre-programmed functions.
Up to 40 programmable moves.
4 modes: 'Guard' (visually scans environment and detects noise), 'Sleep' (enters after 5 minutes of inactivity), 'Dance' (demo mode), 'Movement' (demo mode).
Multidirectional movement.
An infrared scanner vision system to assess distance and obstacles, thus influencing Roboquad's behaviour.
A light sensor controlling the headlights.
A sound sensor.
5 scanning sequences: 'Smart Scan' (reacts to surroundings and activity), 'Scan Left/Right' (will turn and face an object within a 3 foot range on right or left), 'Approach Nearest Object' (moves towards closest object-unsurprisingly!), 'Escape Walk' (selects largest open space and moves towards it), 'Flinch Response' (reacts to approaching object).
Techno sound effects.
Multi-coloured flashing lights.
A full-function, illuminating remote control.
Volume control.
Requires 4 x C Cell Batteries (not included) and 3 x AAA Batteries (not included).
Suitable for ages 8 years+.
Size: 31 x 24 x 24cm.
