Abstract

Some of the toy robots exhibit very intelligent behaviour. This is because they are animal or human like. Examples are: the AIBO robot dog of SONY or human like toy robots QRIO, HOAP, ASIMO.
In the paper we review those above and some other popular intelligent toy robots. We outline some of the toy robot research works in Hungary. Many of the toy robot features can be recognized without having expensive and difficult to reach hardware using software devices like WEBOTS of Cyberbotics which allows simulating and developing control programs for real robots.
