First Peek at Robosapien V2

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the robot-parade dept.

balancedi writes "According to OnRobo, the New Robosapien looks to be a lot more fun but it had better be at a $200 price tag. While still controllable via remote he now is more autonomous. He also has more range of motion, better hands, a vision color system, and a laser tracking system."

    Certainly it's useful. I've just programmed mine to say "Welcome to WalMart" and now it's earning $5.45 an hour while I just sit here drinking beer.
