Robosapien V2

Robosapien V2 means one thing. The best toy in the world just got better! What a guy! Today Wowwee Robotics division gave us a first peek at Robosapien 2. As promised by Mark Tilden, Robosapien’s creator, the new version is much bigger (60cms tall) has some great new features including much more agility, improved ability to talk and interact with others, and a fun new laser tracking feature.

Like the original Robosapien, the Robosapien V2 is destined to be a hit toy for 2005. Robosapein V2 is fully controllable and programmable by remote control and fully autonomous in free-roam mode. He brings the fluid movement and biomechanical agility of Robosapien to a whole new level. Robosapien V2 now has full range of motion and the ability to pick up, drop and throw objects with his finely tuned precision hands. Advanced agility allows him to bend over and twist from side to side, so he can now sit, bend, lie down and stand up.

Robosapien V2 will interact with his surroundings, and even responds with a ‘real voice’…Robosapien V2 can talk! Fully equipped with infra-red radar vision, Robosapien’s V2 moving eyes with blue LED lights can detect obstacles, track movements and take objects handed to him.

Sensory features include a vision color system that enables Robosapien V2 to recognize objects and skin tones; he can wave when he sees you and reach out to shake your hand. A stereo sound detection system allows him to respond and react to noises in the environment. Robosapien V2 comes equipped with “laser” tracking; trace a laser path on the ground and he’ll follow it. And, Robosapien V2 couldn’t carry the Robosapien name if he didn’t possess a one-of-a-kind attitude-filled personality! Robosapien V2 is so advanced he can even control his new friends – Roboraptor™ and Robopet™.  RSV2 takes 6 x D cell batteries and 4 x AAA batteries in the robot, whilst the remote takes 3 x AAA batteries (batteries not included).  AAA batteries can be found above.
