A tire is supposed to be attached to a car and lets the car run. But this tire is not attached to any car, it’s on its own and controllable remotely by its owner. What’s the point here to remote control this tire?
This special tire is called R-Tyre, which is the product of TOSY, a company that has produced quite a number of high-tech toys and robots. They’ve got the funny Ping Pong robot, which is built to play ping pong only with a human at a basic level. Some geeks who always get too lonely and no one to play Ping Pong with, then it’s a great robot to keep you accompanied.
Now lets get back to have a look at the company’s another product, which is what this post is about, the remote-controled R-Tyre. The tire is simply just for fun, I guess. It allows you to use the remote control that comes with it, to direct it to move forward and backward, left and right.
You might have been playing around with couple of RC toys and gadgets, but remotely controlling a tire must be the first time for you. Which you’ll gain a completely different kind of experience of controlling the tire. It’s fun to learn how a tire actually moves forward, backward and into many different directions, while you’re controlling it to do so.
The R-Tyre has the same features as the R-Ball, another product of TOSY, but in different shape. You can get this remote controlled R-Tyre to run on many types of terrain and surface, land, snow, sand, water etc. It supports wireless recharge too. TOSY is a Vietnamese company that has been making couple of high-tech toys and robots. Head over to their website, TOSY.com to check out some other great toys and humanoid robots that will always keep you amused.
