Today, no one is surprised, and it’s hard to please a simple plastic toy figure. Technologies have gone so far in their development that even the once popular “tamagochiks” are considered “sludge” and the last century. What technological toys are most popular among children? The answer is easy - these are various robots, including the nano beetle.
Different types of robots for boys and girls
Radio-controlled toys are very popular. The creators laid in the program "Roborator" more than 40 different functions. A dinosaur robot is able to run, walk, jump, change gait, imitate hunting.
Up to 80 functions can be invested in the memory of a robot dog. Rex is able to change facial expressions, bark with different voices (from the most evil to calm and kind), can drive around the apartment and throw things around like a real puppy.
The robot doll is very popular with girls. She can kiss her mistress, dance beautifully, give guests business cards or other little things. Thanks to the built-in sensors, the doll can move around the rooms, going around obstacles. If the music sounds next to this robe, she herself begins to move in the dance.
The smallest toys are nano beetles. Robots can run like real ones, turn from head to foot, overcome small obstacles.
Is there any benefit for the overall development of the child from robotic toys?
Children are not always able to observe the behavior of insects. The nano-bug is so interesting that the child is practically acquainted with the biology and behavior of a real cockroach.
For the construction of labyrinths and moves for this "creation" you can use parts from various designers.
Bright bugs can serve as an object for the collective play of children, which is especially important in the modern world of individualism.
Thanks to games with independently moving robots, the child has an interest in the exact sciences, mathematics and physics, which will help him to be more successful in adulthood.
External differences
The plastic beetle nano comes in several vibrant colors. Red and yellow, polka-dotted (like a ladybug) and blue, green, striped and with a transparent shell, these small toys conquer with a variety of their shapes.
All these "little things" have common features:
- small body sizes (about 5 cm in length and 2 in width);
- several bent legs (from 4 to 8 pieces);
- robots look like different real bugs;
- all run on batteries that can be replaced;
- most robot bug models have antennae.
In a set of several insects they will all be of different colors. The shape of the insect can exactly repeat its real counterpart, or be simple and fantasy.
How the toy "mini-bug" works
The beetle-nano moves thanks to the built-in battery in its body. Due to vibration, the legs of the bug move, and it quickly and quickly moves along the surface. Accurately calculated by the inventors finding the center of gravity in the toy makes it able to move, turn over, and go around small obstacles in the way. The engineers, creating these models, applied the principles of mechanics, robotics, physics and electronics.
How to play?
The beetle nano behaves just like a real bug. Insects can race, gather in heaps, push and overtake each other. They know how to search and find exits from the labyrinths, turning on their backs, again jumping and changing body position. The toy bug can run along winding paths and on a straight smooth surface.
To have a fun party, you can arrange "cockroach races", forcing insects to overtake their counterparts. You can have fun breaking the lesson in the classroom if you bring this charm to school. You can collect a collection in which there will be only registered and inscribed nano beetles. Where to buy, how to find, with what speed do they run? Surprisingly, babies can reach speeds of up to 3 km per hour! If a cat or dog starts chasing this creation of engineering humor, then it will be an unforgettable sight and a lot of positive emotions.
What the nano-beetle micro-toy can't do
- Can not swim.
- Cannot climb vertical or inclined surfaces.
- Not taught to sing and recite poems.
- Cannot run without battery.
- Does not know how to roll over on command.
- Bugs do not know how to love and breed.
- They do not eat anything, but are powered by only one battery.
- The beetle nano does not bite, does not make any sounds.
- Insects cannot spoil the mood of their owner, as they move and look very positive.
In conclusion, I want to repeat the main characteristics of this popular and beloved mini-toy. Very small robots take up minimal space, run horizontally or at a slight angle on an inclined flat surface. The behavior of mikriks is very similar to the habits of natural analogues. It is worth noting that more fun home entertainment for the whole family has not yet been invented.
