Responsive Mode
Responsive Mode
Responsive Mode is Femisapien’s main walking mode, she can interact with your
sounds or perform comedy routines. You can access the different functions in this
mode using her 4-way joystick hands, described in Table 3.
NOTE:
Right refers to Femisapien’s right and left refers to her left.
To enable Responsive Mode:
•
Gently tilt Femisapien’s head so that she is looking straight ahead. She will
respond with a firm “hmmm” sound.
Basic walking
Femisapien can walk forward, backward, or turn left or right on the spot. She can also
detect objects at her neck height. If Femisapien detects an obstacle in front of her,
she will stop. If the obstacle moves away within approximately 3 seconds, Femisapien
will continue walking. If the object remains, she will stop, reverse and turn away from
it. After approximately 2 minutes of continuous walking Femisapien will stop and
wait for further commands.
When performing pre-programmed “catwalks”, Femisapien does not use her vision
and cannot detect obstacles. When performing slow walks Femisapien can detect
obstacles at her neck height. If she detects an obstacle she will turn away and then
continue walking.
NOTE:
If Femisapien falls over while walking, set her upright within 10 seconds and
she will thank you and continue walking. If she remains lying down for more than 10
seconds, she will enter Sleep Mode (refer to page 7 for details).
NOTE:
Femisapien walks best on smooth, flat surfaces and low pile carpets. Uneven
surfaces might cause her to fall.
