The Robosapien family of robots are the best selling toy robots ever. The advanced technology in these robots was designed by a NASA engineer and refined over years of experimentation and development.

Robosapien Version 2 Humanoid Robot

Robosapien Version 2 is the next generation of Robosapien technology and personality. This new member of the robotic family comes with more advanced dynamic motion, interactive sensors, new program functions, speech capability, and a personality all his own. It's clear from the start that he enjoys bowling, dancing, and having conversations.

Movement
RobosapienV2 is able to walk forward in four different styles, or gaits. He normally uses his IR vision and touch sensors built into his feet and hands to avoid obstacles, but if put into bulldozer mode, he will walk forward or backward and try to push his way through anything.

Beyond controlling him manually with the included remote controller, RobosapienV2 can explore his environment independently in free roam mode. You can also direct his movements by using the remote's targeting feature--just point the beam to a spot on the floor and he will walk toward it.

RobosapienV2 has been designed with a full range of motion. He can turn his head just like humans. So, too, can he turn at the hips and can move them forward and back and from side to side. RobosapienV2 can move each arm independently, and his hands can grab, pick up, and throw light objects, such as the included bowling balls and pins. He even comes preprogrammed with a selection of dance moves.

Sensors
RobosapienV2 is equipped with a powerful vision system that lets him track the movement of objects in his field of view by moving his head and body. He will react differently to things based on their distance from his sensors. He uses his onboard color camera to identify primary colors and skin tones. This helps him identify his bowling ball and pins, and bowling is his favorite game. His ability to detect skin tones helps him know when people are waving to him or when it's time to shake hands.

RobosapienV2 comes with a controller, a green bowling ball and 3 red bowling pins.
He also has hearing sensors that help him detect people in his proximity, tilt sensors that interrupt most functions to prevent damage should he fall, and grip sensors that tell him whether he's been successful in picking up an object.

Programming
RobosapienV2 can be programmed to move in many different ways. You simply enter moves into the program using controller commands, and RobosapienV2 will remember them in order. You can enter walking steps, arm and upper body movements, demos and animations, and even program subroutines. Once he's in guard mode, RobosapienV2 will execute the program if he hears a sharp noise or senses movement. The little guy faithfully remembers his program, even after being shut off.

Robosapien Original Version

Robosapien Programmable Robot The Robosapien Robot is a full function fast moving robot minion suitable for all your world domination needs! Designed by a NASA scientist, the Robosapien is simple enough for kids and advanced enough for adults. Features include real, multi-speed fast dynamic walking, running, and turning; fast, full function arms with two types of grippers; 67 pre-programmed functions including pick-up, throw, kick, sweep, dance, and half a dozen kung-fu moves. Robosapien has programmable "reflexes" to touch, pickup, and kick.

No computer is required, all functions are handled by a remote control which runs on regular batteries for over 6 hours. Includes three demonstration modes: Disco dance, Rude behavior, and Kung Fu. This robot comes fully assembled and ready to go. Requires 3 AAA and 4 D Batteries (not included)

FemiSapien Humanoid Robot

Meet Femisapien the latest in the Wow Wee line of humanoid "sapien" robots. Sophisticated and independent, her advanced design and AI allow her to move in distinctly fluid ways. She is intelligent and interactive, speaks her own form of Femmish and responds to user gestures, touch, and sounds with her own.

Tilt her head to access her three main function modes: Attentive Mode with interactive wandering, seeing and hearing functions, Responsive Mode for walking and scripted actions, and Learning Mode where she remembers exactly how you move her.

FemiSapien's hands have control switches you touch to change her motion, or activate with gestures she can see. And she can even interact with and control other WowWee robots!

FemiSapien is a real 21st century robot entertaining, dynamic, and classy. A perfect, interactive friend and the evolutionary successor to the RoboSapien line. Requires six "AA" batteries, not included. Measures 8.2"L x 12.5"W x 3"H.

Roboreptile Robotic Reptile

Roboreptile, another creation from the makers of RoboSapien, has realistic biomorphic motions and advanced natural dynamics which enable him to move in two emotionally aggressive gaits and two different speeds. His serpentine movement as he stalks on four legs hides the terrifyingly explosive force of Roboreptile.

With his low menacing stride and striking animation, Roboreptile is an impressive mix of mobility, multi-sensory technology and fiery personality. This adventurous beast awakens with a jump, whips his long tail and springs into action. He's capable of high-speed running on all four legs, and he can turn on a dime on two legs.

Roboreptile moves in many ways. He can be controlled directly with the remote, programmed to perform a sequence of functions, placed into guard mode, or put into his "Normal Mode" where he will roam the environment. A full array of sensors - vision, touch and sound - allow him to freely roam and interact with his surroundings. When he gets overly aggressive, he can be calmed with a push of the "feed" button on the controller. And when its time to rest, place the cowl over his eyes to put him to sleep.

Roboreptile includes more than 30 preprogrammed functions, all handled through the remote. Requires 9 "AA" batteries (not included). Measures 33" long.
