RINGBO riding robot up close and personal
RINGBO put a song in our hearts the other day, and now that we've pretended to sit in its little robotic seat, we can assure you that the experience is just as magical as the video makes it out to be. In case you're curious, the bumper-mounted IR sensors work great for stopping Junior from knocking over another vase, and the controls really couldn't be simpler. We heard a price somewhere in the ballpark of a few hundred dollars, but there's really no telling until it lands Stateside for reals. Check out our best approximation of the original music video after the break -- and be amazed.%Gallery-22911%
RINGBO the riding robot is for kids, the song is for everyone
Why is this child so happy? It's because he's taking RINGBO the riding robot by the horns! See his glee as he cruises around for an entire hour at a blazing 2MPH? Hey, it only took six hours to charge up. RINGBO is controlled by those horn-like joysticks, and we can only hope that front panel contains an IR receiver -- one that might give parents hours of pleasure as they override their kids' intended direction. RINGBO will be shown by Airrobot at this week's Koreannovation Trade Show in NYC, so we'll be sure to bring our offspring, as it's meant for children aged 2-3 and up to 66lbs. We just want to know two things: how much, and can we cheat the 66lb weight limit? Maybe just a little? C'mon. Want to have your mind totally blown? Please watch the video after the break.
