The cubes can display many different colors during game time. Which blocks become blue or green seems to be completely random. A blue cube means that Cozmo sees it, but a green glowing cube means that Cozmo will interact with it. The cubes have colors that turn on and off depending on how they’re used. These blocks have specific icons for identification. It also keeps track of the three cubes which are Cozmo’s toys. The app also lets you know then Cozmo’s battery is getting low or when he needs to be fed. It tells you what he’s thinking, how to set up a game or trick, and even keeps count of the sparks left in your “bank.” This is easily done in the free iOS or Android app that must be downloaded for Cozmo to work. Many times, his head, lift (arms) and tread (wheels) need recalibration. He will do everything he can to right himself up. Either putting him upside down or rearing him up on his back wheels will upset him. Note: Should you decide, Cozmo can be easily and completely erased. Anki assures us that no personal info ever goes out and that everything is stored in Cozmo himself and not shared with anyone. ![]() A built-in camera performs the scan and then Cozmo clearly pronounces your name. He’s even recognized our pet dogs! Speaking of recognition, when you first unbox Cozmo, you go through this facial recognition by typing your name and letting Cozmo scan your face. ![]() He always wants to pounce on your finger, play a song or go exploring. Plus the quality is lacking-I had to use my iPad to shoot video because the Anki app will not work in the background on a smartphone, so multitasking is not possible.Ĭozmo gets bored easily and can cause mischief. There are countless Cosmo videos on YouTube that do a better job. Note: I made some videos, but they don’t do justice to everything Cozmo can do. Either way, he’s constantly reminding you he wants to play. Sometimes Cozmo chooses a game to play and sometimes it’s up to you. Cozmo can also earn Sparks by winning games. Different games require different amounts of Sparks. Sparks are like points that are used to start a game or trick with Cozmo. Acquire three and you can unlock what Anki calls Bonus Boxes where you can redeem rewards-sparks, games, and tricks. When you play with Cozmo each day, you’re awarded play tokens. He is self-centered, petulant, moody and lovable-much like a cat.Ĭozmo knows some games and will perform some tricks right out of the box, but as you spend time with him, other games and tricks are opened up. He learns and gets more competitive as you interact with him. Cozmo is a small, intelligent robot that will win you over with his ability to learn and his desire to beat you in every game he plays with you.
