Interactive toys which use robotics technology are becoming increasingly popular with children as they provide entertainment while also enabling learning through play. The wide variety of toys within this category include items that perform tasks like moving, producing sound, or speaking, along with basic programmable features, or to work like a robot in response to basic commands given by the children. There are some robot toys that also serve the purpose of educating children about the basic principles of robotics, coding, and engineering. They can feature robotics like actuators and motors to allow for movement, like walking, spinning, or performing tasks like obstacle avoidance. These toys are mechanically durable in design as well as the electronics utilized so that they are fit for children aged as young as toddlers who delight in motion and sound, as well as older children who are interested in more advanced programming features. These toys are based on icons from science fiction and robot toys that were uniquely designed to suit children from different cultural backgrounds to foster their imagination in a new robot science, giving clearer representations of so robots can look like.
