MECCANO MAX! Meccano-Erector M.A.X Robotic Interactive Toy with Artificial Intelligence. Robotics building sets for kids! Artificial Intelligence plus customizable programming! TTPM reviews this robot for kids. Challenging build for kids 10 and up. Control MAX with voice commands, buttons on the MeccaBrain, or via the free app.
Product Info: Combining Artificial Intelligence with customizable programming, the Meccano-Erector M.A.X Robotic Interactive Toy allows kids, and adults, to have more control through personalization. Before that though, the robot needs to be built, and this set offers a challenging building opportunity for kids ages 10 and up. With 332 parts, it took our TTPM builder 4 hours though may take some builders more or less time depending on experience. Once built, M.A.X measures 12-inches tall. The initial set up involves charging it for 4-6 hours, installing software, and then waking MAX up and walking through a series of questions, and hardware testing with MAX. Then it's time to start playing! You control it using voice commands, buttons on the MeccaBrain, or via the free app. M.A.X can tell jokes, DJ, dance along to music, play a game with you, and so much more. He comes with built-in infrared sensors, enabling him to move freely while avoiding obstacles. Through the app, it's easy to control his movement via a joystick. The longer you play, the more he can do, as you unlock additional levels. You can set the time, and the volume, and hear fun facts from MAX. MAX can even go on patrol, make a delivery, and take messages. One of the best parts about MAX, and one that sets him apart from other robotics on the market, is that he seems to have a big personality thanks to realistic emotional responses via a wide variety of facial and physical animations, sound effects, and speech files. And since the robot is constantly learning, and fresh content is being unlocked, kids can continue to interact with MAX in new ways. This is a fun option for kids who are into science, technology, engineering, and math, and those who enjoy or are interested in learning robotics building and computer programming.
