From Washington Life Magazine Online issue 01Dec2001. Home robots are now a reality with Sharper Images RoboScout. The RoboScout can see through a surveillance camera, even in the dark, and transmit color images to a screen on your wireless control center. It can hear with its microphones, and you can transmit through it to have conversations. RoboScout can hold up to two pounds on its arm, and use its extensive vocabulary to let you know if you are placing too much on its tray. It will greet guests with your personalized message and monitor an infant or sleeping child. When in sentry mode, it uses infrared sensors to detect motion and trigger a series of voice alerts; perfect for preventing kids from peeking at their presents too early. A FAQs Word doc has been added to the file area.
