 The
“KumoTek-X” (KT-X) bipedal robot is the latest robot to emerge from the
creative labs of KumoTek Robotics and Vstone Corporation. Thse robot was
designed to offer an entertaining, low-cost alternative to high-end
robotics, while stylishly combining the latest in sleek design and
cutting-edge robotics engineering.
The KT-X is the first low-cost
bi-pedal robot platform of its kind to be offered in the U.S. that (a)
can be controlled using a standard wireless PS2 gamepad controller, (b)
is easy to use and (c) offers endless hours of entertainment.
The robot is capable walking,
running, somersaulting and standing up from a face-up or face-down lying
position. It can even be programmed to pull itself up autonomously after
it has fallen over. It stands 13” tall, has 17 servo actuated joints
(i.e., 17 degrees of freedom), a powerful 60MHz HV processor with 512kB
ROM / 64kB RAM and comes fully loaded with over 75 preprogrammed
acrobatic motions.
The robot also comes with an easy to use
programming interface, which is without a doubt the most user-friendly
programming utility to date and requires little to no prior experience
with robotics or programming. It can be purchased as a kit or fully
assembled.
