ROBOPANDA™ BASICS IMPORTANT You must have a cartridge inserted in Robopanda’s cartridge slot before you can play with him. See the section on Robopanda cartridges for more information. All of Robopanda’s four limbs move independently. Robopanda is able to sit, crawl and sit up again. Robopanda can tilt his head up and down, and turn his head from left to right. His eyebrows and ears are also animated! With his multitude of sensors, Robopanda recognizes when you touch him on various places of his body.
INTERACTING WITH ROBOPANDA™ This section describes how you can interact with Robopanda. Robopanda’s sensors There are several types of sensors on Robopanda: • Touch sensors • Tilt sensor • Safety touch sensors • Sonic sensors Touch sensors Robopanda has numerous touch sensors on his body that are used to interact and play with him in each mode.
INTERACTING WITH ROBOPANDA™ Tilt sensor The tilt sensor built into Robopanda allows him to sense when he is being carried, shook or tipped over, for instance. When he is tipped over, he might ask you to help him up and likely tell you that he does not like being tilted. If he is continually being tilted, or shaken, he will automatically go into sleep mode.
