Things We Like

As mentioned earlier, the Hexbug Aquabot 2.0 holds an appeal for boys and girls alike. More often than not, robots target the male population, but with this robotic fish, even the fairer sex will definitely be drawn to it.

The Smart Fish technology that the Hexbug Aquabot 2.0 robotic fish uses enables it to do what other robotic toys cannot do. At the top of the list is how it is automatically activated once it is submerged in water. There are no switches or buttons to push to turn it on. Just put it in a fish tank or fish bowl, and it will start swimming and diving. Just to show you how smart this fish can be, it can also change directions on its own.

The Hexbug Aquabot 2.0 robotic fish is attractive, too. Whether you choose the Angelfish or the Hammerhead Shark variety, you can have your pick from ten translucent colors. The translucent nature of these fish make them even more striking once they light up, thanks to the pulsing LED light that glows from within.

Now let us talk about the Wake Me sensor. This is a feature that is not present in the previous Hexbug Aquabot version. After five minutes of inactivity the Hexbug Aquabot 2.0 will automatically go into sleep mode. The Wake Me sensor wakes it from sleep mode with a simple tap on the fishbowl or fish tank. It can also be activated by running your fingers through the water. The movement will automatically wake the fish up.
