The "KumoTek-X" (KT-X) bipedal robot is the
latest robot to emerge from the creative labs of KumoTek Robotics and Vstone
Corporation. The 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 game pad
controller, (b) is easy to use and (c) offers endless hours of entertainment.
The KT-X robot is made with
the highest quality digital servos and electrical components, and requires
little to no post configuration, other than user defined programming.
Designed as a high performance humanoid robot, it is capable of emulating human
like movements such as walking, climbing stairs, back flips and can even pull
itself up from a lying, or seated position.
This amazing 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 inches 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 motions.
The robot also comes with an easy to use programming interface, believed to be
the most user-friendly programming utility to date that requires little or no
prior experience with robotics or programming. The programming software comes
complete with a set of predefined commands that can be used as is, or compiled
with other commands to create the ultimate robot character.
Our supplier provides free tech-support with the purchase of your KT-X, and will
work with you to get your robot up and running. We also honor a one year
manufacturer warranty.
The robot comes unassembled
as a kit, making it ideal for classroom education and user-defined
configuration.
