Surveilling Shapeshifting Robots

The Autobot Transformer Toys are Not Suitable For Children

Autobots Transformers toys are great for children, but Brave Robotics has designed this sophisticated remote-controlled toy adults only. Featured at the Maker Faire 2012 in Toyko, Japan, the Autobot Transformers toy can transform easily from a car to a robot.

What makes this toy not suitable for children is its covert spying function. Once connected to WiFi, users can see from the perspective of the Autobot through their smartphones or tablets. Printed with 3D technology, the bot comes in a sturdy cushioned briefcase along with its remote, making it extremely convenient to take on your next spying mission in the park. The robot will blend right in with all the other remote-controlled planes and models -- no one will suspect yours is actually creeping them.
