Watching a Transformer shape-shift from a killing robot to a car is the coolest thing possible. While many have tried to bring to life the Optimus Prime robot as showcased in the blockbuster movies, only a few have achieved the hair-raising dynamics of the tricky robot.
Hasbro in partnership with Robosen Robotics seems to have achieved the sweet spot finally in the form of the $700 Optimus Prime Auto-Converting Programmable Robot that’s dope!
Autonomous Optimus Prime Robot
Watching this thing magically transform into the one of the two forms (robot and a truck) is hypnotic. Revealed at the Pulse Fan Fest, the self-transforming robot can be controlled with app or even voice commands (25 pre-loaded commands) like “Roll Out,” “Attack,” or “Convert”, which trigger it into action courtesy the 27 patented high powered servo motors.
The Optimus Prime robot measuring 19-inches in height is made up of around 5,000 components and 60 connected microchips which put up the jaw-dropping transforming maneuver. Not only that it can perform bipedal walking tricks and race other vehicles in the truck form.
