New robots from Disney and Thinkway will debut @ Maker Faire –
Based on the title character from this summer’s highly anticipated Disney*Pixar theatrical release, the Ultimate WALLรยทE is an advanced robot that truly brings the character to life. Designed and developed through a close collaboration between Disney, Pixar animators and Thinkway, the Ultimate WALLรยทE features 10 motors, giving it a high level of movement and animation. The remote control makes it easy for kids to program WALLรยทEรขโฌโขs movements. An innovative touch programming system lets kids direct WALLรยทE simply by making patterns on the remote’s touch pad. With voice activation and a follow-me mode, WALLรยทE can follow the sound of a human voice and detect someone entering a room. He also has several emotional states and an easy system for programming thousands of combinations of movements with the remote. Numerous sensors allow him to detect and respond to his environment, including infrared sensors that allow him to detect obstacles and steer around them, sonic ears that detect sound direction, and touch sensors. The Ultimate WALLรยทE is also MP3 compatible and features built-in speakers. USB cables and rechargeable batteries are included.
