Mekamon Robot V2 Black

The MekaMon is a small robot that allows for spectacular battles to be fought. The fighting takes place in an augmented reality world. Essentially, the MekaMon is a toy robot the size of a shoebox, reminiscent of the spider tanks Tachikoma from Ghost in the Shell. It is controlled using the accompanying app for iPhone or Android smartphones. It can walk on its four legs, duck, tilt, roll, overcome small obstacles, or play dead. It becomes exciting in conjunction with the camera. When you aim the robot and a specially patterned mat, a virtual battlefield forms around them, complete with obstacles like boulders, buildings, and walls. In a single-player campaign with various missions, players must use the MekaMon to protect labs from hostile slime aliens, demolish weapon towers, or shoot down combat drones. For this, the robot is equipped before the battle with plastic attachable weapons and a virtual arsenal of shields, laser cannons, EMP grenades, and missiles. The weapon systems are activated via the app's touch interface and are dramatically showcased on the display. Projectiles whiz around and explode in fireballs. Up to four players can compete against each other with their MekaMon and engage in battles. They are connected to each other via infrared sensors. Hits from energy blasts or laser lances are registered, prompting the small robots to react with jerky movements. Similar to a video game, the robots have a health bar that decreases with each attack. However, the plastic spiders are not designed for real battles with physical combat.
