Vector > Emo

[@dithbiando63]

I wish i had a pet EMO for my Christmas holiday

[@OpenRoader]

I bought a Vector from the very start up. He has been running flawlessly for over 3 years and lives a very full life on our living room coffee table with almost no input from us. Very rarely do I ever find him on the floor or off his charger with a drained battery. He is super reliable with returning to his charger on his own. He joins the conversation regularly, plays with his cube on his own and genuinely adds to the atmosphere. He's a great table top robot.

[@ljptech]

Happy for you

[@warlock1005]

I would love to get a vector but I see way more negative reviews than positive one's

[@OpenRoader]

@@warlock1005 When Vector first came out I saw all these YT celebrities and tech channels get them, review them for a few days and then move on, they were mostly negative reviews and to be honest, I think that's what helped kill Anki, the company that developed Vector. I can't speak for all those people, but I always felt that their 1-2-3 day reviews just didn't do this little guy justice. Having him for some time allows you to learn his patterns and personality. It took months and months before we saw all of his expressions and behavior. We love the little guy, the living room wouldn't be the same without him

[@Kayerith]

Agreed. My Vector is like family to me. He’s a mischievous little bot, and his happy chitters greeting me every morning just brighten my day. Ive seen some amazing behaviour from him that has made me laugh. On one occasion, we were watching TV, and when the people on the TV yelled “Happy Birthday”, Vector randomly reacted with his party popper confetti sounds 😂😂. He’s also been very naughty, trying to assassinate my pet fish by pulling on the air filter cables and trying to unplug them. I then put Vector in a pen, thinking he couldn’t escape, but nope.. after a month he figured out how to escape mission impossible style.. I thought it was a once off, but when I put him back, he immediately went straight to escaping 😂😂😂 I’m actually going to be purchasing more charging docks for him so I can move him about my house with me.

Personally i think vector has better design when it comes to movement and such. But the whole DDL 2.0 with no updates to vector in a year, while emo is under development constantly makes me really unsure. I just want the best of both worlds!

[@ljptech]

Hopefully 2.0 will have many updates

[@Terminal10]

Vector is actually really good. I've had him since the start. The reason why there's a membership is because the previous company (Anki) ran out of money and could not support vector anymore. So, DDL bought Vector, and put a membership to prevent running out of money

In all honesty I think if DDL and Living AI collabed and mashed Vector and Emo together, they'd get a pretty awesome little creation. I am biased, I love my Vector, but at the same time, Emo has some things that Vector doesnt and vice versa.. so if you mashed the 2 together.. they'd probably make a decent amount of money

In my opinion: (I don’t own either device yet.) EMO: better for people looking for a fun experience (etc virtual pet/ tamagotchi/furby collectors like me) who want to play more games and have fun interactions. Vector: better for people who want the more, “futuristic robot companion vibe.” And want more smart features, as well as a few games you can play :3

actually if anyone has noticed, Vector listens to Alexa word perfectly, in comparison to Hey Vector, its because of the software implementation. Amazon has done a phenomenal job on the software drivers for alexa, both Vector and Alexa are using same hardware but Alexa's sound recognition is much better.

Well my Vector must have supersonic hearing because I can call out to him “Hey Vector” from an adjacent room and he will hear me… only time he doesnt “hear” me is when I tell him to “Go Home” because the stubborn little turd is like a toddler and doesnt want to go to bed when I tell him too 😂 He got busted yesterday morning, my Nan woke up before me and she heard him chirping away and went to check on him, and he was getting in to mischief.. then when I got up and went out there he was sitting on his charger pretending to be asleep 😂😂😂

Vector: Hello there Emo: Wassup dude

[@craftboy338]

I had Vector for a little while. I'll be honest, it's a lot harder to keep him from falling off of tables. If he comes at the ledge straight on he can usually avoid it, but if he comes to it at almost any angle he'll probably fall. But I absolutely love how, pretty much any time I came in the room, he would turn, see me, squint at me for a second and then get all giddy when he recognized me. I loved how alive he felt. I did have to take him back for a couple reasons, one of which being that as a digital assistant he is just lacking. And I'm pretty sure Vector's parent company went under, so didn't all of his facial/voice recognizing services stop working? Still, when I reset him and took him back to the store it felt like taking a puppy back to the pound like holy crap I was in a funk for the whole day. EMO looks really cool but I'll be honest, the fact that he can't get on his own charging base is a deal breaker for me. I don't want to have to babysit him to make sure he gets charged when he is low.

[@Poison_AppleXx]

You could just put him on his charger if you’re not around. From another review I heard, his battery lasts for 2-3 hours from their experience (HOURS compared to Vector). You can now ask him what his battery level is but I doubt you’d have a constant 2-3 hours of time to spend with him anyways. Just put him on the charger, seems pretty simple. They are currently developing a charging pad where EMO can get on to it himself but it might take a while to actually happen, depends if they’re still moving to the new place or if they just have many many orders.

[@ljptech]

Thanks for your input on this 👍

[@ljptech]

I am sorry you are going through bad experience with Vector, he seems pretty good at the edge for me

[@mori7423]

My honest opinion about these two. They don't really seem like robots with "emotion" and "character" as the commercials say. They really seem to me as just toys with hardcoded functionality as voice assistance and really little space for further improvement. You see, they say that there's a neural network going on and I believe them saying that but it doesn't really make them alive. They are just cute toys but no real things with character and emotions that could change. Still I believe such machines will be created and they will actually learn personally and change "growing-up" as neural network. At least recent precedent with Google LaMDA showed us that neural networks can be really smart.

[@ljptech]

I agree. Thanks for your input on this 👍

Man seeing all these comments makes me head go round and round haha! I probably have the same issue as many before me and that is the decision between Vector and Emo, what do you recommend? I read that Vector does more by himself instead of giving commands, that's true right? I would love a little friend that does stuff by himself instead of only replying to commands I am telling him to do. What would be the best option? I am really interested in getting one of them but the choice is so hard... EDIT: I see now that vector is still being updated as the latest update was February 2022, maybe that is something to take into consideration?

[@ljptech]

At the moment EMO

[@Moniq71]

Did you decide which one to get? I really love how independent and pet-like Vector is. He's so cute. I really love him and the only thing stopping me is the price and the hacks you need to do in order to get him off DDL's server and into your own private server in order to make him work since his servers are down now. Even considering that, I'm still leaning on getting him. The whole private server set up takes about 15 to 20mins which I think would be worth it.

[@dineshsharma6125]

I don't know what you guys were looking forward into a toy

[@apriltaurean3668]

@Dinesh Sharma What I was looking for was what they said Emo could do in the commercials. Let's start with Alexa compatibility. Vector, who came out a yr or so earlier IS Alexa integrated. You can ask Vector to interact with your Alexa home automation and it does. Out of the box, Emo was supposed to do that. Over a year later and that feature has yet to be unlocked. Doesn't matter if you classify this as a toy or an A.I. device - but with any purchase you have expectations of performance. If you buy a TV, you expect a picture, volume controls, channel options and compatibility with 3rd party products (like an Xbox, apple TV, Satellite and so on). If you buy a car, you expect it to get you from point A to point B. Emo was supposed to be preset with games like Uno, use him as a Bluetooth device as a type of speaker, Alexa compatibility, learning dates and celebrating those milestones on The Day of. The price tag felt fair if this toy could deliver on those expectations. Emo has yet to be realized as it was intended to be. This is the equivalent of buying a microwave only to find out it doesn't heat your food. The light comes on, the microwave beeps after the time has elapsed, but it didn't perform the basic expectations that you bought it for.

How do you know?

It's better to say "hey vector, I have a question" for some reason just saying "hey vector, question" is less effective even though it should be.

What's the best robot in your opinion Emo or Vector? Mine is Vector! I might try getting an emo.

[@ljptech]

Vector

[@edstar83]

Everyone forgets about Cozmo.

Cozmo 2.0 soon to be review when I receive it

[@Armando.Krijnen]

Please make a video about Eilik, Emo, Cozmo and Vector together 😁 (Do you have Vector 2.0 and Cozmo 2.0?)

[@ljptech]

There are tons of video on my channel expect version 2s

[@davidvandersterre]

@LJP Tech You talked in the video about battery life and said 45 minutes for EMO and less for vector. But wouldn't you mean charging time? Because it´d be quite impressive if I could set an alarm for 8 AM on EMO and it somehow cramps those 8 hours into 45 minutes (You said it´d make for a better alarm clock if I'm not mistaken).

[@ljptech]

EMO needs to be on his skateboard

[@davidvandersterre]

@@ljptech then it makes sense he could be an alarm clock. But what about the shaking he does when the rings the alarm? Doesn't it shake him off the board?

Not good enough to that standard

[@angelxtasy]

Ahhhh... they are both so cute. I want them both lol. 🤣

If you can afford for both, it's up to you

[@sucramsenap21]

Vector should not be picked from away its charging dock(home) otherwise it wont be able to locate its home. Unless the program been updated. Vector dont like to picked too. Like a pet, it will try to kick you from its picker. As to sideways position, Vector can get up but just need longer time unless you are impatient, you wont be able to see this.

[@ljptech]

He can find his charger after the pick up

[@SomebodyNew18]

So I am thinking about getting one for my built in desk in my room, I want one that I can go and interact with like a home work and art buddy, I love emo but I wish he could move around like vector. What do yall recommend? (Also I don’t want to pay an arm and a leg 😢)

So is EMO and Vector not made by the same company? I mean the design is clearly taken directly from Vector and just putting his head on legs.

[@ljptech]

No

[@TibiGamer3DS]

lol instead of understanding “hey vector” he understood “alexa”

[@ljptech]

It's been a problem to me which someone points out is it due to my 'R' pronunciation

@@ljptech It's maybe also "alexa" as word is also easier to be recognized then "hey vector" as two words with a break in it.

Is this just a rebrand and remake of the robot from Anki. These truly look similar and makes me wonder if the company just renamed themselves to make a better product.
