This educational app is very informative. It has information about hundreds of robots, including interactive photos, videos of the robot in action, specs, and links to external related websites. The user is able to rate each robot on a a few dimensions and then see how each robot ranked as rated by all users. I do wish I could also see my own robot rankings, independent of the other users.
Just bought version 1.2 of the app. The interactive media works, video plays, but there was no audio on my 3rd gen. iPad.Contacted support and they got back to me stat, and that on a Saturday.It would appear there's a bug in iOS 6.0.1. If you're having similar trouble, try toggling the side switch settings from mute to rotate (and back). Fixed the issue for me.
This is my 12-year old son's favorite app. He looks forward to the regularly updated robotics news. Not just for hard-core geeks, the app includes lots of cool consumer applications and even toy robots! Now, the rest of the family loves to join in too. You must check out the 360 degree views of robots and the rate-a-robot feature is fun too. Just get this app- you will not regret it!Fun Homeschool Mom
I'm a huge fan of the field of robotics - it's not my area of study, don't now that I'm smart enough, but I sure am looking forward to them joining our lives more and more. I knew the featured robots but there are so many more! Interactive views, photos and videos plus stats in an easily understood view. Excellent!
This is a great "playable" encyclopedia of scores of robots past and present. Kids, young and old alike will love geeking out to the exhaustive bios, specs, videos and photos. Truly a fantastic resource for science education.Being able to enjoy Hiroshi Ishiguro's animatronic visage from the comfort of my bed is worth the price of admission alone.
I can't stop talking about robots! Just a few things.... I love Pleo rb and I hope you can make an animation for him. Also, the videos aren't playing well and I can't play face of or stuff that needs wifi when I already have wifi! Anyway, this app is a virtual robot zoo!
