Author: More Pleo Dinosaur Robot Information
Pleo dinosaur robot's sophisticated sensory system consists of nearly 40 devices that enable him to see, sense, touch and detect objects in order to move autonomously and explore his environment without requiring any remote control. This robotic dinosaur includes a colour camera with a white-light sensor that allows him to detect bright light from dark, see colours, detect motion, track a moving object, and perceive objects in front of him. This unit also includes binaural microphones on the left and right that give him stereophonic hearing, allowing him to detect sound direction and loudness through both ears. An infrared receiver and transmitter allow Pleo dinosaur robot to identify, communicate and interact with one another, while another infrared interruptor allows Pleo dinosaur robot to detect when something is being placed in his mouth. Meanwhile eight touch sensors on his chin, shoulder, legs, back and head are triggered by touch and allow him to "feel." What's more, this dinosaur has a skin that is constructed of a custom-formulated, soft thermoplastic material that's painted with an incredibly realistic and lifelike colouration.
Pleo dinosaur robot also has over 100 custom-designed gears, and 14 motors for highly-articulated movement. Each motor has a force feedback sensor that makes them sensitive to forceful grabs at the dinosaur's legs, neck, tail and torso, causing him to shut down during trauma to avoid internal damage. Pleo dinosaur robot will actually react to being hurt, perhaps exhibiting a limp, and can recover over time depending on the level of nurturing you exhibit. Ground sensors allow Pleo dinosaur robot to know when a foot is on a solid surface or when he has been picked up, while tilt and shake sensors allow him to know if he has fallen or is being held upside down. The sensors will also wake him up after he has fallen "asleep." Both front and rear speakers even enable Pleo dinosaur robot to communicate via cute honks and hoots, as well as other fun and natural sounds.
UGOBE Life OS is the complex platform of tools and technologies that enable Pleo dinosaur robot's mechanical, electronic, sensory, and AI (Artificial Intelligence) systems to interact as a lifelike whole. Pleo dinosaur robots owners can find training tips and download enhancements to Pleo dinosaur robot from www.pleoworld.com, but his programming merely sets his wheels in motion, leaving the true magic of his development up to you.
Pleo dinosaur robot comes in a green colour, weighs 3.5 pounds, and stands about 7.5 inches high and 21 inches long when on all fours. Pleo dinosaur robot is designed for older children, teens and adults. (As Pleo dinosaur robot is a highly sophisticated product which evolves into an inquisitive animal that requires attention and care, it is not considered suitable or intended for children under eight years of age.)
Pleo dinosaur robot is powered by an internal, rechargeable NiMH battery that takes about four hours to charge and provides approximately an hour of active life. This power supply features a battery level indicator that causes Pleo dinosaur robot to feel very tired and slow down, so you know precisely when he needs to be recharged. Pleo dinosaur robot has two 32-bit microprocessors for central and image processing, and four 8-bit sub-processors for motor control. This robotic life form also has multiple built-in data ports, including a mini USB port for online downloads, an SD card slot for Pleo dinosaur robot add-ons, and the infrared transceiver that allows Pleo-to-Pleo communications.
Fact: Goldfish do not live very long. And it can be distressing for all members of the family when they pass away. To avoid undergoing similar trauma in the future, we suggest a more robust pet in the form of Pleo dinosaur robot. Pleo dinosaur robot is a one week-old Camarasaurus from the Jurassic period. Obviously, his resurrection has less to do with DNA and more to do with modern technology. You see, Pleo dinosaur robot is a robot. But DO NOT confuse him with other robots available. Goodness, no. Pleo dinosaur robot is a marvel. Indeed, each Pleo dinosaur robot has a unique personality that develops based on Pleo dinosaur robot's life experiences with you. He interacts with you and autonomously explores and responds to the world around him. He can feel many emotions, including joy, sorrow and anger, and even dreams when he falls asleep. 'How is this all possible?' you ask. Well, Pleo dinosaur robot has a sophisticated sensory system made up of a colour camera, sound sensors, two infrared sensors, 14 motors, over 100 gears, eight touch sensors, and an orientation sensor. These devices enable Pleo dinosaur robot to hear, to see, to sense touch, and to detect objects. Simple really.
