Touch Sensors
Roboraptor has multiple sensors which allow him to explore his
™
environment and respond to human interaction.
Tail Touch Sensors: Press the sensors on Roboraptor ’s tail to
™
see his reaction. The reaction varies depending on his mood.
Chin Touch Sensor: Press the sensor under Roboraptor ’s chin to
™
see his reaction. The reaction varies depending on his mood.

Roboraptor ’s mouth. In Hunting Mood, touching this sensor will

trigger a biting and tearing animation. In Cautious and Playful
Moods, Roboraptor will play a tug-of-war with whatever is in
his mouth.

Advanced Operation
Stereo Sound Sensors:
Roboraptor can detect sharp, loud sounds (like a clap) to his left, his right and directly ahead.
™
He only listens when he is not moving or making a noise.
Hunting Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look at
the source.
If he hears another sharp sound from the same direction he will turn his
body towards the source.
If he hears a sharp sound directly in front of him he will take a few steps
toward the source.
Cautious Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look at the source.
If he hears a sound straight ahead he will walk away from it.
Playful Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look
at the source.
If he hears a sound straight ahead, he will take a few steps
backward, then take a few steps forward.
Infrared Vision Sensors:
Roboraptor™ has Infrared Vision Sensors that enable him to
detect movement to either side of him.
The sensors react best to movement in the area just in front of
his nose as shown.
In Playful Mood Roboraptor will nuzzle your
™
hand if you approach from the side.
In Cautious Mood, Roboraptor will turn his head away
™
from movement to the side.
In Hunting Mood, his reactions are much less friendly!

Advanced Operation
If you trigger the Vision Sensor on one side more than three times in a row,
Roboraptor will get frustrated and will turn away from you. This will also happen
™
if you leave him standing with his head facing a wall.
Obstacle Avoidance:
Roboraptor uses his Vision Sensors to avoid obstacles
™
while wandering around.
While walking he will not be able to detect movement
so he will react to you as if you are an obstacle.
Press the “Stop” button before trying to interact with him.
Roboraptor ’s Infrared Vision System is based on
™
reflection. This means that he can see highly reflective
surfaces like white walls or mirrors more easily and at
greater distances.
Understanding Your Roboraptor
™
• Roboraptor walks best on smooth surfaces. Use the two faster walking speeds
™
on rough surfaces like carpets.
• Roboraptor responds to remote control commands more easily when you are in
™
front of him. He will not see as well if the controller is behind him.
• please note: infrared functions can be affected by bright sunlight,
fluorescent and electronically dimmed lighting.
• Upon activation Roboraptor™ will be sensitive to sound, vision and touch.
