Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

When you’ve got a geek in your life, finding an original Christmas gift can be a nightmare – what do you get for someone who has already researched, evaluated and blogged about this year’s coolest gifts?

Clever Christmas Gifts For Geeks

These Christmas gifts for geeks all come with a large helping of nostalgia. Here at Flashwear HQ we got a little excited when we got our delivery of the Big Trak, ultimate retro geek eighties toy. Big Trak is a programmable tank vehicle that became the bane of parents, pets and siblings in the early eighties. It can be endlessly reprogrammed and even made its debut in ET. Bringing things up to date but staying firmly in childhood, we have the Antquarium and this year’s hottest toy, the Hexbug. Hexbugs are awesome little robots that navigate obstacles and to be honest, I had to include the Antquarium because it looks like something from the USS Enterprise nursery school.

Hexbugs – Amazing Micro Robots

Monday, November 15th, 2010

Blue Hexbug

Hi-tech, cute and clever, Hexbugs are the coolest micro robots we’ve ever seen! Hexbugs are autonomous robot bugs that are awesome to play with. These brightly coloured micro robots are great fun and they are a great way to get kids interested in robotics.

Each Hexbug bumbles along until it finds an obstacle or hears a loud noise. Its sensors allow it to locate the sound or obstacle and it will retreat and try a new direction, wandering off to explore any environment. You can watch them navigate mazes, direct them with sound or let them interact in their own special way. Hexbugs might look cute and silly but they contain some advanced micro robotics. Their walking legs mimic the actions of a real insect and the way they move is just awesome.


Hexbug Nano

Green Hexbug Nano

The Hexbug Nano is possibly the smallest toy robot around. This cool little bug has a unique walking motion and it even flips itself over! While the original Hexbugs walk on six stepping legs, the Nanos use a rocking motion to scurry around like real bugs. They have a tiny motor that creates upwards and downwards force, causing the legs to straighten and bend. Combined with the clever shape of the carapace, this also allows them to flip over – try putting a Hexbug Nano on its back to see it in action! Hexbug Nanos are even better when you put a few of them together and they cleverly navigate mazes and complex environments.


Hexbugs Habitats

Nano Hexbugs are able to navigate mazes and you can get an amazing range of Hexbug habitats to challenge them. All the Hexbug habitats are modular, so you can endlessly reconfigure them and combine different kits to create new layouts. You can also build your own habitats from scratch and challenge your new robotic pets to overcome all sorts of cool challenges.
