KT-X Overview
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.
Remote Control Now Included for Domestic Customers
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, which KumoTek believes to be the most user-friendly programming utility to date that requires little or no prior experience with robotics or programming.
We provide 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 warranty.
