A few years we will have daddy vector all grown up bringing me a cold one lmao. And I’m exited for the future

[@Digitalfiendscom]

In my opinion, the proof of concept was Cosmo. Anki quickly discovered that developers also really wanted additional sensors, primarily a mic, better camera, and touch sensors. Another feature developers and general users of Cosmo really wanted was more autonomy and not having to tether the robot to a mobile phone/tablet. So Vector is really an evolution of Cosmo and, in my opinion, is going to be awesome. I've had Cosmo for about 1 1/2 yrs and my daughter and I love playing with him - not to mention the recent code lab updates make Cosmo an incredible educational tool. Vector's SDK looks like it is going to be awesome. Imagine writing up some code to have Vector patrol your house, stream the camera feed to a secured endpoint (security software recorder somewhere, local or cloud), and if it detects a face or what not, it can send you a text message or something. You probably can even code up something fun like if he hears the door bell he'll bark. :) With a little bit of work, you should be able to integrate Vector with HomeKit and other home automation APIs/frameworks too. Things like "Hey Vector, lower the temperature 1 deg". Given all the sensors Vector has, this should be possible. He's going to be amazing to tinker with!

Remember this: in order to be able to do that, the transmission has to be sent over the internet to your mobile network provider, which then pass it on to you if you have a signal... but this transmission could easily be intercepted, decrypted and then read and possibly used, like working out your location. Basically, it'd attract more bad people to your house who then set off the transmission, which can again be intercepted and used, which starts off the whole cycle. In other words, it's a security freak's worst nightmare. Some security doesn't provide reliable security!

Oliver Lorenzo Don't you dare... This isnt short circuit the movies where you need to destroy it every chance you get. Its like Murder in a sense. Its too cute and smart and cool tech to want to hurt it or blend it up. Do you want it pissed off and contacting its buddies to get you back lol

Spending less effort on having the robot do physical things, and more on letting it be a character. Sounds like a good strategy. How would you compare Vector's character qualities to the Gatebox virtual robot revealed in Japan several months ago?

[@eiderglast]

I need this, I can't have a pet. Vector will be my companion in my lonely life (but I'm guessing this is expensive.).

[@liv-uu1fi]

The price is actually really reasonable.

[@legotoolboxtheepic202]

Will this have it's own app, or will it be connected with the Cozmo app?
