Robosapien Overview
Q: Why do his controls seem to be reversed?
A: RobosapienV2 is controlled from the remote like you
would direct an actor on a stage. When you are
facing him, your left is his right, which makes him easier to
work and program from the front.
Q: Can I use Ni-Cad batteries in my Robosapien V2?
A: No, they are not recommended.

General contd
Q: How can I keep RobosapienV2 awake for long periods?
A: If he is kept in front of an object so his eyes blink slowly
(a white wall about 4 1/2 feet/ 1 1/2 meters away works well), he
will stare at it for over 2 days before his brain batteries
finally die.
During this time he will pay attention to anybody who walks by, but
wont entertain you or go to sleep.

Vision
Q: My robot keeps staring at strange objects around the room.
What is he looking at?
A: He sees using Infra Red (I/R) light, a light too red for
humans to see. However, many appliances, computer screens,
TVs, and dimmed lighting emit I/R light which your robot can be
attracted to, so hell just naturally turn to have a look.
If your robot seems to be distracted by objects in the
surrounding environment and isnt performing the commands you
request, try moving him to another area, or pressing the b
button on his controller to disable his vision abilities.

Q: My Robot thinks I am blue. What do I do?
A: If your robot thinks you are blue for some reason, then the
problem is the white balance setting in his color camera eye. His
default mode is indoor yellow light like the warm light you
commonly get from indoor light bulbs.
As with a camera, you may have to adjust what he sees for indoor,
outdoor, or sun-on-beach.
If youre outside under SUNLIGHT,
press SHIFT1-SHIFT2-SHIFT3-x
If youre inside under FLUORECENT LIGHTS,
press SHIFT1-SHIFT2-SHIFT3-z
In different light settings, his perception of colors may change. For
example, under indoor white fluorescent lights (when in indoor
yellow light mode), human hands appear blue, yellow tennis balls
appear green, and oranges appear red.
Please check your RobosapienV2 instruction manual, page 25, for
further color camera information.

Sound
Personality Bodycons
Q: How can I reduce the volume on my robot?
A: A bit of tape over the speaker grill at the back of his neck will
greatly reduce his volume (though he will sound like hes talking
through a telephone). Or stick a 1.5 x 2 Post-It over the
speaker grill, which will reduce the volume without muffling the
speech too much.
