Are you a hardcore Star Wars fan? Even if not, this highly functional gadget can be useful to you. It is a remote controlled half-sized replica of the famous R2D2 robot! It works, it moves, even sounds just like the one in the movie. A true fan’s dream, I guess. But that’s not all.Although it can’t show you holographic images, it can be used as a projector instead, providing clear image on your screen from any sources possible. Internal player for CD and DVD, audio\video ports, card reader (SD\Multi-Media Card\Memory Stick\Smart Media), it even has an iPod dock! All this interfaces give you possibility to project video or photo from practically any gadget you have. Let’s not forget about the sound; this robot can sound like a good stereo with 20W speakers and surround capabilities. And it is moving too!
Robot is fully motorized, and can do almost everything the original R2D2 from the movie did except for being smart of course. You can make it go in any direction, rotate his head unit and even tilt his legs backwards, to make ceiling projection possible. With many built-in sensors, like surface sensor, you can be sure this masterpiece will not fall from the edge of a staircase, (in) for example.
Projection sensor is ensuring that R2D2 is at least 1.5m away from the object wall before projecting – useful option that prevents projector from accidental turning on somewhere in the closet. And last, but not least – leg sensors, which are to prevent anything getting caught during leg movement. Inventors thought about almost everything possible situation, didn't they?
I think that it would be a good purchase not only for Star Wars fans, but for technology freaks and for those who likes to see that beautiful expression of ultimate amazement on their guest’s faces. And if you’re interested, you can preorder this robot .
Truly a moving multimedia center from the future!
