AIBO robotic pets are considered to be autonomous robotssince they are able to learn and mature based on external stimuli from their owner, their environment and from other AIBOs. Autonomous robots are robots that can perform desired tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance

  3. ROBOSAPIEN Robosapien™ is a sophisticated fusion of technology and personality. Loaded with attitude and intelligence, Robosapien is the first robot based on the science of applied biomorphic robotics. With a full range of dynamic motion, interactive sensors and a unique personality, Robosapien is more than a mechanical companion -- he's a multi-functional, thinking, feeling robot with attitude!

  4. ROBORAPTOR THE DINOSAUR 1)  Rorapraptor is a cool looking robotic toy. 2. Roboraptor has the ability to function in ‘roam mode’. 3.

  5. It is a family of six-legged robots designed to travel on multiple terrains. The robots use legs rather than wheels because legs are better able to adapt to changes in terrain. This robot can be used in many applications, particularly in outside environments. Used for education and research. This project aims to augment the capabilities of the EduBot by adding a laser scanner that can aid in autonomous navigation. EDUBOT
