Abstract: Like Cosmo, Vector is an orange-sized robot that moves around on tracks, has fork-lift-like arms on the front and a large head between them that's almost entirely screen. On the outside, little is different except for the colour palette and some other min...
Vector's charming personality is an absolute delight, The technology and sensors involved are incredibly impressive, Future updates and support means Vector has huge potential
