Controlling RoboMe™
Roam mode
To turn, the robot will spin on the spot until the button is released. Therefore, the LEFT arrow button will
make it move counter-clockwise and the RIGHT button will make it move clockwise, regardless of the
direction the robot faces.
Obstacle and Edge Detection
As RoboMe™ moves around, it will detect obstacles in range directly in front of it. Upon detection, it will
stop and make a sound. It will do the same when it detects an edge. The robot can see highly reflective
surfaces, such as white walls and floors or mirrors and might perceive them to be an edge from which it
can fall.
NOTE: The robot cannot detect obstacles or edges to the side or behind it.
Modes
RoboMe™ comes with a few modes that do not require connection to a smart device and app.
Demo Mode
RoboMe™ has two demo routines. To activate a demo, point the remote controller at the robot and press
the DEMO button. To stop, press any button on the remote controller.
NOTE: RoboMe™ moves around during demo routines. Ensure the surrounding area is free from obstacles and edges.
Guard Mode
In Guard Mode, RoboMe™ will scan the environment directly in front of it, up to about 3 feet (1 meter)
away. The robot will sound an alarm if it detects movement of a large person or object within that range.
NOTE: If you give RoboMe™ other commands while in Guard Mode, the robot will exit Guard Mode.
To activate Guard Mode:
1. Press the GUARD button on the remote controller.
2. The robot will perform a scan of the immediate environment about 3 feet (1 meter) in front of it.
3. RoboMe™ will make different comments to show it is scanning the area. If RoboMe™ detects any
movements, it will sound an alarm.
4. After about 30 minutes the robot will exit Guard Mode and wait for a command. If you do not enter a
command within about five minutes, it will enter Standby Mode.
5. To exit Guard Mode, press the GUARD button on the remote controller or give another command.
Roam Mode
In Roam Mode, RoboMe™ explores the environment without your commands, commentating and detecting
obstacles and edges along the way. To enter Roam Mode, press the ROAM button on the remote controller.
After approximately ten minutes, RoboMe™ will exit Roam Mode. If you do not enter a command within
about five minutes, it will enter Standby Mode. To exit Roam Mode before this, give another command.
Standby Mode
RoboMe™ is equipped with a Standby Mode. If you do not interact with it for approximately 5 minutes,
the robot will make a comment and enter Standby Mode.
During Standby Mode both object and edge detection will function but the robot’s eye and
mouth LEDs switch off. The mood indicator LED fades to white and pulses more slowly.
To wake RoboMe™ from Standby Mode, press any button on the Remote Controller or activate any of
its sensors.
Sleep Mode
If RoboMe™ is left for approximately 35 minutes more (approximately 40 minutes altogether) it will enter
Sleep Mode after making a comment. The mood indicator LED will turn off along with the object and edge
sensors. To wake RoboMe™ from Sleep Mode, turn it OFF and then ON again using the power switch
located on the underside.
NOTE: If you are done playing with RoboMe™, turn it off using the power switch located on the underside.
