From the same company who made a killing off the Rovio during the December holidays, Wowee has taken the name of this blog and created a product out of it!
Just kidding.
The moniker ‘bugbot’ has been used plenty of times before, I just did not know that the nickname had invented long ago by robotics engineers and other high-tech tinkerers.
Wowwee, a company aimed at making fun toys for grown-ups, is “a leading designer, developer, marketer and distributor of innovative hi-tech consumer robotic and entertainment products.” They’ve come out with their own answer to the hexbot; these little guys are also the same price (about 10 bucks) and will be available to the general public in the next months.
