HYPER PEPPY-II
is a robot with a built-in sensor which reacts to vibration from
sound or physical contact. It moves forward but when it senses a
high pitched noise (such as a hand clap) or vibration from
physical contact with an obstacles, it retreats by reversing and
turning left for a preset time and then continues forward on a new
course. You will enjoy its crispy movement. You can learn the
mechanism of sound sensor and the ratchet mechanism.

Walker-II |
|
|

|
MOON WALKER II carries 2
sensors, the light sensor and the sound sensor. It moves forward for
several seconds when either of the 2 sensors detects the light intensity
change or a sound command, such as a hand clap, with its 4 legs, and stops
automatically when either sensor senses such a change or command again. |

Man |
|
 |
SUMO MAN emits the infrared rays. The reflected infrared rays from
other robot are detected by his sensor and SOMO MAN rushes to the
opponent jabbing his arms. You can select its movement, "rushing against an opponent"
and "avoiding an opponent" by switching the modes.

CIRCULAR NEO is a unique wonder ball which glides on the floor. With a remote radio controller, you can command spinning, going
forward and backward, and turning right and left. Changing frequency
of the radio controller, you can enjoy time trail or speed race with
your friends.

Avoider is a robot that moves about
evading obstacles by way of infrared ray sensing system which is
composed of infrared ray emitter and infrared
receiver. It finds its obstacles
by going around and changes moving direction.

Tracer |
|
 |
LINE TRACER follows a black line on white paper, twisting
and turning to track the line drawn by you. A light has a
characteristic which is absorbed by black color and reflected by
white color. Using a red LED and phototransistor, LINE
TRACER distinguishes "black" and "white".

WAO-II
is an intelligent robot with a four bit micro computer. Through 25 keys you can input the motion program, which is a set of
orders to WAO-II.
Utilizing two sensors and wheels, WAO-II
moves according to your program. Communication with a computer is
also possible by using the optional interface card. This robot also
has the ability to write. You can learn about basic microcomputer,
simple programming system, and function and mechanism of electronic
parts.
