Roboni-i Game Robot

Robotic toys are fun to have, but they don’t really have the same flexibility and multiplayer functionality that video games currently offer. That may all change with the Roboni-i, the world’s first-ever programmable gaming robot. With these tiny two-wheeled powerhouses, you and your friends can design a potentially endless range of games and activities.

The Roboni-i touts 360-degree movement, 16 infrared sensors in all, and 4 processors that make it a truly intelligent robotic toy. You can program your own Roboni-i to avoid obstacles, do tricks, and play games. And if you and your friends have one each, you can either play with the pre-designed games or create entirely new ones.

The Roboni-i is designed by Zigbee, and you can try and get your hands on your very own Roboni-i through their website. And now that the technology for programmable robotic toys such as Roboni-i and Parrot’s Remote Controlled Helicopter is in place, it may mean more toy choices by the time this year’s holidays roll around.
