The so-called “robot” will run forward and reverse with a remote control unit. He had his eye on it for a couple of months at the gift shop of a children’s science museum, then when the museum closed down we picked up the “robot” for about $20. It occasionally will be set off by something outside and will take off across the floor as if on its own initiative.
