Your honesty cracks me up hahaha. You gotta admit they seem like one of the better companies and are just playing the game like everyone else. It’s going to be incredibly difficult for them to get people interested when you look at how abysmally robot Kickstarters have been performing lately. I...

Collin thanks for the tips regarding the spludge kit and taping the screws to keep track of them. Looking forward to seeing how you manage to fix the gearbox. Do you happen to have a link to the spludge kit you are using? I might be interested in purchasing one. Cheers.

Niko and Lovot🙂

What are Aibo owners thoughts on how Sony is managing the revamped Aibo? Admit I’m disappointed with their approach and was hoping to see bigger improvements in the companionship aspects by now after almost five years of ownership (purchased mine in late 2021). The constant virtual food updates...

First look at Pophie’s app. First impression, I’m really liking how they decided to onboard Pophie through a Bluetooth connection to your phone without a drawn out email registration process.

Hi Paige. Great find! Yes definitely worth something! This is a Moxie robot and probably worth between $500- $1000. They are no longer being manufactured so definitely a rare find.

Beta applications have now closed and InsBotics will be sending out Pophie for beta testers to review in the next week judging from posts on social media. Anyone here in the beta? I decided to wait until the Kickstarter, I’m not really a content creator so didn’t see the point of being...

Robert, found a Loona repair service in Turkey claiming to offer authorised parts replacement. Not sure if legit or not. I’d be wary of shipping robots to Turkey, they have ridiculous import fees and it could end up a nightmare. The problem with Loona is the parts are all specialised and...

This channel seems to offer a robot repair service.

Welcome Oltgon. You should be able to set up Loona on a new account with the app despite it still being bound to a previous account. I’ve found the old account is overridden once you complete set up of a new account through the app. The fact no countdown timer is appearing is worrying and I...

These robot vendors do repairs, but not specifically for Loona. https://techshop82.com/shop/ https://ebisempire.com/Home

Hi Joey B. I can never get most of the stuff in the app to work from route mapping to phone hotspot. Hopefully someone who has successfully done this will be able to help. I posted your thread in our fb group with 6k members but only got crickets, I give up with online communication. Someone...

Welcome Wei.Xu! XiaoMu looks like a great desktop robot! Does it have any touch sensors? I really like how you have made all the AI processing offline. Do you have any more videos demonstrating XiaoMu’s capabilities? Thanks for taking the time to stop by and share your Kickstarter here. You...

KataFriends orders have begun arriving in Japan with owners sharing their new arrivals on X under the following hashtag: #KATAフレンズとの日々

Lovot Software Update 12.0.5 Lovot’s recent software update brought some big improvements, including refined eye animations and a changed shape—especially noticeable in the eyelids and overall expression. Lower eyelid movements are more detailed and subtle, shifting the overall look to create...
