Function modes

Patrol.Mode

In Patrol Mode (free roam), Joebot will wander around freely, inspecting and making comments on

his environment for about ten minutes.

If you see him walking towards trouble, you can steer him in the right direction by giving him voice

commands such as, “Hey!” or “Turn!”. If he hears you, he will respond with his face LEDs and he’ll

back away. He’ll walk for a long time in different ways so it’s up to you to keep him from getting

into trouble.

If he hears more than ve loud noises, he will become annoyed and enter Battle Mode. •

If he sees more than ve obstacles with his scanning vision, he will think he is surrounded •

and enter Guard Mode.

To enter Patrol Mode:

Enter Robot Mode, and then use a voice command like, “• Enter Patrol Mode!” or “Go look for

aliens!”. If he understands, he will respond with “Patrol Mode”.

To exit Patrol Mode:

Press any of his ngers. •

Guard.Mode

In Guard Mode, Joebot will stand guard, scanning, listening for intruders for about two hours. He

uses his hand LEDs to project IR vision beams, and his chest LED will pulse on and off. He might

occasionally say something to remind you he’s “on duty”.

If you show him something in front of his hands within about 8 inches (20 cm), he’ll react. If you

tease him, he might enter Battle Mode. A short wave in front of his hands will get a response

(his eyes will look at you), but hold your hand there for more than about two seconds and he’ll

interpret that as an attack and defend himself.

If he hears something loud and short, he’ll also comment on it. If you clap quickly four times, or

yell, he will get annoyed and enter Battle Mode.

NOTE: Joebot stays in one place in Guard Mode, but will wander around if he enters Battle Mode,

therefore do not leave him in places from which he can fall.

To enter Guard Mode:

Enter Robot Mode, and then use a voice command like, “• Guard!”. If he understands, he will

respond with “Guard Mode!”.

To exit Guard Mode:

Press any of his ngers.•
