HighTechScience.org's RoboRaptor Robot

RoboRaptor is an advanced fusion of technology and personality. With his advanced artificial intelligence personality, realistic biomorphic motions, direct control and autonomous (free-roam) modes, the Age of Dinosaurs has truly returned.

   RoboRaptor is a robotic toy invented by Mark Tilden and distributed by Wow Wee Toys International. It uses motion technology based on realistic biomechanics that give it fluid and natural movements. It has an IR multi-function remote control. Unlike the original RoboSapien, the RoboRaptor is capable of autonomous movement.

   The RoboRaptor has several sensors that allow it to monitor and interact with its environment. It has infrared and stereo sound sensors on its head, and touch sensors on its chin, tail, and mouth.

   RoboRaptor has four different modes of behavior or moods. Hunting, Cautious, Playful, and Free-roam.
    In hunting mode, it will react to sharp sounds and progressively focus its attention more intensely on repeated sounds coming from the same direction.

   In cautious mode, it will react oppositely and move away from sounds it hears.

    In playful mode, it will react to sounds in a more whimsical fashion but neither approaching nor avoiding them.

   In free-roam mode, it will explore its environment, avoiding obstacles and stopping occasionally to listen for loud sounds to investigate. The Raptor does not walk well on carpet and cannot be programmed.
