Digital Life

Wowwee, makers of Roboquad, Robosapien and a host of other toy robots are going to be debuting a new radio controlled flying bee based on Dreamworks main character in its Bee Movie. The Flytech Barry B. Benson will be introduced at this year's Digital Life in NYC.

Yeah, we were a little pissed about the iRobot Looj, but it's only because we expected more innovation from iRobot. Today, we may have found the name and brief description of the second robot that iRobot is due to debut at Digital Life: the iRobot Connectr. The company filed a trademark for Connectr a week ago on Sep 5 for "robots for video and audio monitoring, surveillance, and communication". It sounds like a spy robot for military or police use but it could be a telepresence robot too, a Spykee of sorts?
