Robotic Gaming Up Ahead

"...the robotic gaming concept has vast potential which is sure to be realized." so says Tom Dusenberry, President and Director of Robonica and former CEO of Hasbro Interactive.

Robonica could be the the next step of toys and entertainment. Robonica, a start-up focused on developing new forms of robotic entertainment, is set to launch its new product offering titled, “The Rise of Robotic Gaming.” The robotic games will fuse robotics, R/C vehicles and electronic gaming and stand apart with meaningful and structured game play.

The introductory product from this offering is Roboni-i Action Games. The creator of this innovative toy is Johan Poolman. A seasoned veteran and entrepreneur, Poolman says Robonica is looking to make the next step in entertainment robotics.

"Robonica was born out of frustration - frustration with the inability of the current generation of radio-controlled and robotic toys to provide any form of structured and interactive play, and frustration with the increasingly anti-social and intangible realities of video games," said Poolman, an information technology expert who is pioneering the robotic gaming concept. "Our sole purpose is to explore new frontiers and provide the world with meaningful and entertaining forms of robotic entertainment. Robotic gaming is the evolutionary 'next step' for entertainment robotics."

Roboni-i is the first entertainment robot with unlimited play patterns. It features 16 sensors, four processors, RF remote control and Zigbee peer-to-peer RF protocol allowing for competitive game play with real-world robots. Simply put, this is one intelligent robot. It comes with accessories and six action games allowing for real-world robotic game play. Users will be able to work as a tandem or against each other.

Furthermore, connecting it to a computer turns the Roboni-i into a wireless receiver. According to the company this will allow users to, “enter a virtual world where they can create profiles, participate in virtual missions, play online games and interact with friends who are online at the same time.” Once launched, Roboni-I will be available online at ToysRUs.Com and on other popular websites.

"We believe there is a strong and urgent need to provide a meaningful, repeat-play alternative in the entertainment robotic and R/C product categories," said Tom Dusenberry, President and Director of Robonica and former CEO of Hasbro Interactive. "As such, the robotic gaming concept has vast potential which is sure to be realized."

SCHUMACHER Mi3 : Fastest R/C Car in the World

The car features an 11 horsepower remote controlled motor and a 12 cell battery pack which would normally be found in remote controlled airplanes.



The case for the car was handmade from
carbon fiber, and it was designed to be aerodynamic, and it features an all wheel drive system for increased traction.

GRAVITY-DEFYNG RC Cars by 2010?


GRAVITY-DEFYNG RC Cars by 2010? You got it. A company is said to be in the stage of developing this sort of RC Car Prototype. RC Afficionados, read on. This is gotta be something

MajicWheels Enters Final Prototype Development



Remote-Controlled Cars Defy Gravity by Traversing Walls and Ceilings; Cars to be Offered to the Global Commercial Toy Market in 2010

MajicWheels Inc. (OTCBB: MJWL), a leading developer of gravity defying remote-controlled toy cars, announced today that the company has entered the final stages of prototype development. The company plans to offer MajicWheels to the worldwide commercial toy market in 2010.

At www.youtube.com/majicwheels, watch the vehicle prototype climb walls and ride across ceilings.

MajicWheels utilizes patented technology that enables its remote-controlled cars to traverse a variety of surfaces, including those that are steeply inclined, completely vertical, or even inverted altogether. The products perform these feats while most other traditional toy cars are limited to flat surfaces.

"MajicWheels is going to offer functionality that children-and even adults-only wish that their current remote-controlled cars could achieve," said MajicWheels CEO Asher Zwebner. "While most cars just start spinning their wheels helplessly at the base of a wall, for MajicWheels that is where the fun begins. MajicWheels climbs walls and ceilings, leaving most remote-controlled cars behind."

"We are pleased that our prototype has entered the final development stages and look forward to offering our products in a variety of shapes, colors and sizes in 2010," Zwebner added.
