Best of all, Cozmo feels like a living breathing entity with emotions and while these are only algorithms, you can’t help not feel something for this device. So while you can control Cozmo, it has a unique personality which requires lots of human interaction, including feeding it energy and even grooming… err… tune-ups. There is a wizard which helps with this process, including connecting Cozmo to your phone and entering the words longest code… I didn’t add the hyphens! Once connected to your phone, you’re ready to start interacting with your new buddy Cozmo! The app also teaches you the basics in getting the most out of Cozmo, including playing games, recognising faces and saying their names, stunts and even making little stories.

The setup process of Cozmo is a relatively straight forward process and once you have unpacked it from the box, placed it on the charging dock, you then need to download the accompanying free app for either your Android or iOS device. When it’s time for Cozmo to charge-up, it clever drives itself onto the charging dock and commences charging which is done through the sensors on the bottom of the robot. Besides Cozmo, the robot comes with three power cubes and a charging dock which connects to a USB port.Īccording to Anki and to fully charge Cozmo, it will take 30 minutes and impressively, this will give our little robot around 45-minutes of run time. There’s also some lights on the top of the robot and there are built-in sensors on Cozmo on the front and sides, including a VGA camera (30 frames per second) on the front which nicely rounds out its design and more importantly, it feels well-built.
Adding to the features is the interactive screen of Cozmo which has a resolution of 128 x 64 and great for displaying his emotions. Out of the box, the first thing that you may notice about Cozmo is its almost Disney Pixar appearance that does have parallels to WALL-E with its over the top cuteness, animated face, tank treads for movement and interactive lift arm which even allows you to fist pump! It’s also relatively small but has a big personality and it measures at 100mm x 70mm x 55mm. Adding to the customisation options of Cozmo is that it allows its owners to tweak the robot courtesy of its accessible coding language which does teach you the basics of programming. Welcome to the future with Cozmo from Anki that in essence is an interactive smart toy with some very clever AI (Artificial Intelligence) features that kids of all ages will simply adore, particularly with its Tamagotchi-like personality! Sure, it’s a gadget but it’s a fun gadget with some great replay value and more importantly, excellent support from Anki with their updates as you play, talk and interactive with this robot.
