Remember the Robosapien, the Robopet, the Roboraptor, the Robosapien V2 and the Roboreptile? These consumer robots have been big hits over the past couple of years, and aren't just remote-controlled toys, but are imbued with a basic form of artificial intelligence, able to roam around your home, interact with people, avoid objects and look very 21st century. Now, the RS Media has arrived - the coolest and most advanced consumer robot yet!

 

RS Media stands for 'Robosapien Media' and looks like an upgraded version of the previous two Robosapien models that took the world by storm in 2004 and 2005, along with the white Roboraptor, Robopet and Roboreptile robots you can see in the second image below.

Meet RS Media. Notice the LCD screen on the chest

 

RS Media is the latest model and he has some serious hardware upgrades. Besides just being able to move around, interact with the environment and be programmed to perform cool tasks and tricks, the RS Media has four new personalities to entertain you, and can now play music, photos, films, games and more, with video and other information appearing on the inbuilt LCD screen. RS Media is controlled with a games console-style remote control that you hold with both hands - you'll see this in an image on the next page.
