Title: What is possible with a Wowwee robot?
Post by: fabz on August 13, 2012, 11:51:59 AM

Hi I have had this Wowwee robot laying around for a long time... I also have a arduino and some other items like a ultra sonic bar and motor controller.

Well I'm wondering what I can do to inprove this robot and what is possible with it? i would like to make him walk around on his own and ask qeustions or somthing?

I really dont know what to do with him...

this is a photo of the Wowwee i have:

You could just hack the controller (you know, the thing that you press the buttons on) by threading arduino pins to each of the controller's input pins from the buttons. Then, to "press" the buttons, you just send a "HIGH" signal from the Arduino to the correct pin on the controller.

Just a thought.

lol there is like 44 buttons on the remote ... what i would like to to become is a more robotic fighting bot that can box with simple movements in the ultra sound or anything like that if its possible?
