I have a CGL 'George' CompuRobot programmable robot / toy / computer-
Battery Powered: 4 AA's and 1 9V fit into a slide out tray on the back of the robot. The CompuRobot was produced in the mid-1980's by Axlon. The Axlon company was run by Nolan Bushnell (Atari); it also produced the Topo robot! This robot was also marketed as "George" in Britain by CGL.CompuRobot has three motor speeds and a working headlight. A 4-bit microprocessor on board runs programs that are entered by pressing a sequence of keys on the robot's head. The robot's memory can hold up to 48 commands.Here is mine -
Here are some photos of the other version not mine , mine is in quite good condition also -
Here is how you program him -
Commands are entered with a
command button followed by a number -- to switch to third gear, move forward for
4 seconds, do a 180 degree turn and then reverse the program, you would press
the following buttons:
Change Gears | 3 | Go Forward
| 4 | Recollect Running | Go
As an example of the
"multiply" button: to turn right for ten seconds, pause for 30
seconds, turn audio on for 3 seconds, and then turn the audio off:
Turn Right | 5 | Multiply | 2
| Pause | 5 | Multiply | 6
| Audio | 1(on) | Pause | 3
| Audio | 3(off) | Go
These are really quite rare now
