Functional Rick and Morty Butter Bot can roam your breakfast table


If you know how to solder, you can expand this little bot’s capabilities.

The 4.53-inch tall Butter Bot is powered by a dual-core processor and features a 1,000mAh rechargeable battery, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, a tiny speaker and microphone, a two-megapixel camera, and a pair of electric motors driving its treads. The robot can be operated using an included wireless remote that has a joystick for steering, several buttons for triggering sounds and pre-programmed actions, and a small screen that can show a live video feed from its camera. It’s also a STEM learning tool that can be upgraded with optional modules including lights, a motion detector, an electronic nose that can detect various gases, and a blank circuit board for further expanding its capabilities.
