The Robosapien V2 is the next generation of Mark Tilden's popular Robosapien robot. It's nearly twice the size of the original Robosapien robot. Instead of the original caveman grunts the V2 can speak a reasonably large list of pre-recorded phrases. It has infrafred and basic color recognition sensors, grip sensors in its hands, touch or contact activated hand and foot sensors, and sonic sensors too. For movement the V2 has an articulated waist, shoulders, and hands giving him a wide variety of impressive body animations.
Battery Requirements
The V2 requires 6 D cell batteries and 4 AAA cell batteries, split evenly between the the robot's two foot compartments. The remote control requires an additional 3 AAA cell batteries.
Features List
The V2 model has the following notable features:
Infrared vision sensors for basic obstacle avoidance and long range object detection.
Basic color recognition camera sensor for detecting either primary color objects or the skin tones. The camera is used for detecting his green bowling ball, red bowling pins, and the presence of a human being.
Sonic sensors for detecting loud sounds.
Grip sensors in both hands for detecting when an object has been successfully grasped or picked up.
Individually controllable feet, hands, arms, and shoulders with an extensive list of remote controllable body movements along with a library of stored movement sequences (animations).
Notable Autonomous Behaviors
Given proper lighting conditions he can track objects and react to the presence of objects held close to his face.
When he recognizes a bowling pin, he will ask you to place it in his hand. He will then try to find more bowling pins directly in front of him and if found, will put the bowling pin in his hand next to them.
He can bowl with his green ball and red bowling pins.
He will utter phrases relevant to each of his notable behaviors. For example, if you take an object he was tracking out of his view he will say "Where did it go?" or "Signal Lost!". When you place a red bowling pin in his hand, he will say "These belong on the floor!".
Free roam mode where he will explore his environment, avoiding obstacles with his infrared sensors.
React to noises in the room.
If you initiate the sequence from the remote control, he will interact with the Robopet and Roboraptor robots for a brief time by giving them commands and making funny quips.
Additional Features
The V2 comes with a repertoire of funny sayings and animations which you can activate from the remote control. The old favorites such as burp and fart are there, along with a humorous take-off on the Lost In Space robot's "Danger Will Robinson!" and many other entertaining one-liners.
Much of the V2's internal behavior can be deduced by the blinking patterns of his blue eye pads, which change as the V2 changes modes.
He can track and follow a laser target painted on the floor or a wall with the remote control.
