History of cybot

Meet Cybot's Ancestors


The design of Cybot is based on that of Reading University's Seven Dwarf Robots. The Dwarves were originally developed to introduce school and college students to robotics and used a simple sonar system (similar to that found on Cybot) which allowed them to avoid and follow solid objects. Later versions of the Dwarves were given the capacity to learn
for themselves, how to move around in their environment and the ability to share this
information with each other either directly or over the Internet.
