A cheap remote control toy robot (marketed from about 2005 under various names like “Odyssey Android I” (model ODY2006-N), “Space Wiser”, “Mr. Robot”, “Intelligent” disc shooting robot), not sure of the original manufacturer, some boxes are labeled “Feng Yaun”. There are lots of other variations of this robot with slightly different molded plastic shells and different pre-programmed functions and demo routines.

The robot can 'walk' moving its legs and arms, and roll forward and back on the wheels in its feet. The head rotates and eyes flash and a number of foam discs can be loaded into the top of the head from where they are fired out of the mouth. It plays a number of pre-programmed recordings of phrases by voice and sound effects. The infrared remote can control walking forward and back, turning left and right, and rotating the head.

Demo routine.

Powered by 4 “AA” batteries, the on/off slide switch is located below the battery pack on the back. There is a red push button switch below the chest the initiates the demo routine. There appears to be one motor for walking and two small motors for the wheels in the feet, one motor for throwing discs and one motor for turning the head. There are two red LED eyes below an infrared receiver which is in the centre of the fore-head.
