Ugobe's Pleo.

By Alex in Toy & Video Games on Feb 8, 2006 at 2:23 am


This cute dino toy has 8 microprocessors that control 14 servomotors and respond to signals from 38 sensors. The dino also moves fluidly – it’s destined to be the must have toy of 2006!

Caleb Chung unveiled a lifelike toy dinosaur named Pleo that senses its surroundings, reacts to touch, walks about on its four legs and shows emotion.

The robot, about the size of a toy poodle, expresses sadness and disappointment by gently lowering its head and tail when it’s ignored. Rub its rubbery back or poke its feet, and the 3.5-pound dinosaur springs back to life just like something made of flesh and blood.
