My Mate Nuvo

Another entry in the robotics market . Check out this little guy. He’s bipedal and stands 39 cm tall. He’ll be available in different colours and would make a good alternative to the more common “pet style” robots. He can get back on his feet should he fall over and accepts commands via voice or mobile phone.

He boosts quite a few features for such a petite little guy. Sensors include joint angle sensor, acceleration sensor, rate gyro sensor and infrared obstacle sensor. His camera eye is CMOS, 310,000pix and he’ll hold up to 100 images. He has a microphone and speaker and Wireless 802. Under normal usage he’ll go up to 1.5 hours between feeds (charges) and can recharge in 2 hours.

Current availability is limited though, with just a trickle of Japanese versions being made available.
