ADVANCED OPERATION
Top View
sTEREO sOuNd sENsORs
Roboraptor X™ can detect sharp, loud sounds (like a clap) to his left, his right and directly ahead. He only listens when he is not moving or
making a noise.
Hunting Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look at the source.
If he hears another sharp sound from the same direction he will turn his body towards the source.
If he hears a sharp sound directly in front of him he will take a few steps toward the source.
Cautious Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look at the source.
If he hears a sound straight ahead he will walk away from it.
Playful Mood
When he hears a sharp sound to his side he will turn his head to look at the source.
If he hears a sound straight ahead, he will take a few steps backward, then take a few
steps forward.
INFRaREd VIsION sENsORs
Roboraptor X™ has Infrared Vision Sensors that enable him to detect movement
to either side of him. The sensors react best to movement in the area just in front
of his nose as shown.
In Playful Mood Roboraptor X™ will nuzzle your hand if you approach from the side.
In Cautious Mood, Roboraptor X™ will turn his head away from movement to the side.
In Hunting Mood, his reactions are much less friendly!

ADVANCED OPERATION
If you trigger the Vision Sensor on one side more than three times in a row,
Roboraptor X™ will get frustrated and will turn away from you. This will also happen if
you leave him standing with his head facing a wall.
ObsTaClE aVOIdaNCE
Roboraptor X™ uses his Vision Sensors to avoid obstacles while wandering around.
While walking he will not be able to detect movement so he will react to you as if you are
an obstacle. Press the “Stop” button before trying to interact with him. Roboraptor X™’s
Infrared Vision System is based on reection. This means that he can see highly reective
surfaces like white walls or mirrors more easily and at greater distances.
uNdERsTaNdINg yOuR RObORapTOR X™
Roboraptor X™ walks best on smooth surfaces. Use the two faster walking speeds on rough surfaces like carpets.
Roboraptor X™ responds to remote control commands more easily when you are in front of him. He will not see as well
if the controller is behind him.
Note: infrared functions can be affected by bright sunlight, uorescent and electronically dimmed lighting.
Upon activation Roboraptor X™ will be sensitive to sound, vision and touch.
