NOW IN STOCK - The Robot of the year has arrived!
You would be forgiven in thinking this amazing wi-fi robot has just come back from a mission to mars! It’s made by the same people who brought us the Robosapien range and one of their developers was actually involved with the NASA space programme. Rovio is a WiFi enabled robotic webcam that easily moves in any direction and can be controlled remotely.
You can View and interact with Rovio’s environment through its streaming video and audio via its built-in camera. Use Rovio to check in on your family while away from home, watch over your house while away on vacation, or look over your pets during your lunchtime (just what is your dog getting up to while you are away?!) In the office, enjoy movement enabled web-conferences with colleagues, using Rovio anywhere.
Direct Rovio’s movements, neck-mounted camera, and audio from your own living room – or anywhere in the world – via the Internet, using any web accessible device such as a mobile phone, video game console or PC. What Rovio see’s and hears so do you.
The clever bit is the fact that you can store ‘way points’ which Rovio will automatically navigate to with the click of a button. It does this by NorthStar navigation software. Working like a micro-GPS system, Rovio knows where it is, locates the positions of other objects, and accurately navigates through its environment under its own control.
To make sure Rovio never runs out of battery there is a self dock option which will send Rovio back to its charging dock at the touch of a button.
Not only is this a cool novelty gadget it is also a cost effective addition to your home security.

R2D2 Wireless Webcam is a bit of an understatement when you find out all the things that this little Artoo can really do! This 1:5 detailed scale replica is a wireless webcam that you can control remotely either via the controller or your PC.
This has to be the ultimate piece of kit for true Star Wars fans. As well as been a working remote control replica of R2D2 (built to 1/2 scale), with realistic sounds and lights taken from the movies, this is also a video projector that can project video (or still images) onto your wall up to 80 inches from corner to corner.
Some products really capture your imagination and this is one. The Robot Arm reminds us of the ones commonly found in car manufacturers all across the world and is a great gift for so many people, for so many reasons.

We’ve found some creepy crawly insects that you won’t be stamping on. The Hexbug is a robotic cockroach that can move around freely detecting and navigating past obstacles. Not only does it have its sensor antennas but it can also hear! When ever it makes contact or hears a loud noise (e.g a clap) it will reverse in a semi circle to the left and then continue in a straight line.
“Ah mister bond we’ve been expecting you!” If you’ve ever dreamed of being the next James Bond then we’ve got a gadget for you. Straight from Q’s production line comes the MP3 & Camera Sunglasses!
