Going Ape over RoboSapien

Going Ape over RoboSapien 12/02/2003 12:24 AM
Taiwan News has an article about RoboSapien being a humanoid robot that dishes out kung fu moves. Mark Tilton, aka BEAM religious leader, and hyped as a Nasa scientist (you either like him or hate him), is helping Wow Wee toys create the RoboSapien which will be coming soon to stores at around $100 each. RoboSapien is build on the BEAM concept like their previous toy BIO Bugs (popular a couple a years ago), but instead of a bug it is sort of like a fast lumbering ape. It walks like a ape, it growls like an ape, it even passes gas like an ape. It can dance and do kung fu. I"m sure kids will go ape over this thing.

Mini Robosapien and More 01/04/2005 09:01 AM

Having made many of the "must have" lists for Xmas 2004, WowWee is introducing follow ups to their breakout product, the Robosapien. A new 7-inch Mini Robosapien is the first to be shown, shipping in February for just $10. More robots will be shown at CES this week, including a new 'Robosapien V2,' a 'Roboraptor,' and a 'Robopet.'

Chrome Robosapien

Chrome Robosapien 08/30/2004 08:08 AM

Could it be that Sharper Image actually has something marginally cool? Incomprehensible as that may be, it appears that the technoshlock vendor is selling special edition "Signature Series" RoboSapiens, available in both Chrome and Blue, with designer Mark Tilden's autograph.

I realized as I started to write this that I had missed my little brother's seventh birthday. Nate, if you're reading this, remember that your brother doesn't hate you, he just, uhm, was waiting for the chrome one to come out. Actually, your brother just calculated shipping at Sharper Image, and you're getting a white one from someone else, because with shipping prices like that they can blow him. This is the brutal world of finance I am teaching you about!

Robosapien V2 (and Friends!)

Robosapien V2 (and Friends!) 01/06/2005 09:52 PM

The new Robosapien V2 looks fantastic. For just 200 bucks, the new bot will be able track objects and movements, recognize objects and skin tones—all sorts of crazy stuff. Onrobo (another one of the new robot blogs, a trend I think is great) has details, as well as this first picture. Oh, and they have information about Roboraptor and Robopet, which the new V2 Robosapien can control (although they can be operated independently).

Robosapien Update with Video

Robosapien Update with Video 03/06/2004 02:03 AM
There's a lot of buzz lately about Robosapien, Mark Tilden's latest robotics venture. Dave Hrynkiw of Solarbotics sent us this update: "Solarbotics visited Mark Tilden at the Wow-Wee show room during the 2004 New York City Toy Fair. The Robosapien has been getting very high interest, garnering coverage in both the toy-trade and TIME magazine issues released during the fair. It's presently on pre-sale at BestBuy.com (on their website cover page) for $99.99 (yes we know that Toys'R'Us / Amazon list it for $89.99, but we have it on good authority that they'll most likely not be getting it in stock before BestBuy does).We are fortunate to be the first to bring you video footage of what the production Robosapien is capable of. Enjoy!" The Solarbotics site also has plenty of photos and video of the development and pre-production versions of the robot.

RoboSapien Reviewed, Music Videoed 08/31/2004 07:44 AM

Gadget Madness has completed an arduous multi-week "experience" with the RoboSapien that has ended (as many love affairs do) with a music video. See the white robot ape chase away pigeons, bask in the plastic-crackling sun, and co-opt the culture of black robots - sort of a mechsploitation film, really. They've also got a really nice collection of links at the end of their review for those interested in hacking their RoboSapien to do even more than it does out of the box.

Release Dates

Robosapien V2, RoboRaptor, and RoboPet
Release Dates 02/01/2005 09:08 PM

GadgetMadness confirms the release date of WowWee's next set of Robots and I have to say I'm disappointed. While I'm not looking forward to paying $200 for a Robosapien V2, I'm most certainly not looking forward to waiting until December before I can get my hands on one. The RoboRaptor [pictured] will launch for $100 in August, which might sooth me, although I may wait to go cheap in October and get one of the ambiguously named Robotpets for $70 instead. Or I'll do what I did with the first Robosapien and get one for my brother, then steal it from him when I go home for the holidays.

With the parade of multicore chips at the recently-concluded Intel Developer's Forum, it was crystal-clear that the company has finally left behind the last vestiges of the hunt for megahertz. Instead, we have a newly-branded desktop CPU, the Pentium D, and a host of other multicore products. Join Hannibal as he looks back at the IDF and discusses where Intel is headed next.

E3 roundup

E3 roundup 06/05/2005 10:53 PM

Another E3 is ready to wrap up. Before it rides off into the sunset until 2006, check out Kurt Mackey's roundup of all things E3.

The big news at this year’s E3 was the introductions of next generation consoles from Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft. The marketing material’s been covered pretty extensively, and E3 was a good chance for scrubs like me to get (or attempt to get) some more information about the upcoming consoles.

Microsoft was the big winner when it came to showing off next-generation consoles. Sony was second, and about all Nintendo had to say about the Revolution was that it's about the size of three DVD cases. Read on for the definitive E3 summary.

Review Roundup

Review Roundup 09/25/2004 05:03 PM

A roundup of the stuff I've seen and used in the past few months:

• Riding Giants was fantastic, doing for surfing what Dogtown and Z Boys did for skateboarding: making a sport interesting to regular folks. The big wave stuff at the very end is really incredible, though if I had to find any fault with this movie, it kind of glossed over the 80s revival of big wave surfing, especially all the drama at the Eddie Aikau contests.
• The folks at Bigha sent me a Jasper Laser to play with, and it actually works as described. On dark, clear nights, you can point at stars surprisingly well, and folks next to you can see what you're pointing at. For complete amateur astronomers, this is often the biggest problem as you point and try to describe stuff to others. The laser worked so well one night that I heard my next door neighbor ask "what in the hell is that?!"
• The "cr ippy duck" bag from Crumpler is the best laptop/camera bag I've ever owned, and might just be the last one I need. The laptop sleeve fits my 12" powerbook well and I can toss the charger, my digital rebel, an extra lens, and an external flash into the rest of the interior space. Basically I can carry everything I might need in something smaller than most of the messenger bags I've used in the past.
• My bag is also filled with ziplinq cables, which work great at connecting and charging my cell phone, my ipod, and my CF card reader, in addition to connecting to ethernet when need be and modem connections as well.
• Joel on Software's book is a surprisingly good read. It's basically a book of essays and blog entries but it's really well written, though skews towards hardcore (C++) software development.
• I mentioned Medium Footwear on this site about a year ago, but finally found a shop with a good selection in San Francisco. I own a pair of these and they're some of my all-time favorite shoes. Interesting on the outside, and a comfortable skate shoe on the inside. Perfect.
• Jason took me to an all-risotto restaurant called Risotterria that was really good and worth checking out if you're in Manhattan.
