Infrared Vision Systems; Flinch Response; Long-Range Infrared Vision; Close-Range Infrared Vision - WowWee RS Media User Manual

RS Media is equipped with two sets of vision systems. One vision system
tracks movements and detects obstacles; the other system differentiates
between certain colors.

Infrared vision systems

RS Media's infrared vision system allows him to respond to commands
from the remote controller.

Flinch response

If RS Media is not already tracking something, and you place something
very close to his eyes, he will perform a flinch response.
He will turn his color camera ON when he does this. If the object remains
close and stationary for a few seconds he will try to identify the color.
(See Color Recognition, page 44).
If you do not hold the object stationary in front of his face, he will start
to track the movement with his IR vision.
NOTE: To make RS Media perform a flinch you must hold the object
close enough to his face to cover all sensors, as shown in the
diagram.

Long-range infrared vision

RS Media's long-range IR vision enables him to track objects within his
long-range IR vision. He will track the object using both his head and
upper body.
He will not make comments on objects tracked using long-range IR
vision.
DESCRIPTION
When he tracks long-range movement, his eyes flash at a slow rate.
(See Blinking on page 45).
Turn the IR sensor

Close-range infrared vision

on or off
When tracking something at a close range, RS Media will follow it as far
as his head turns.
He will make comments about objects seen using the close-range IR
vision. When he tracks close-range movement, his eyes flash at a fast
rate. (See Blinking on page 45).
If an object that RS Media is tracking with his close-range IR vision
remains stationary for a few seconds, he might ask you to give it to him.
CAUTION: Be careful when offering RS Media an object; he will drop
anything he is already holding.
NOTE: If you make RS Media track an object with his close range
vision for too long he will get bored and stop tracking the object.
