The Anki Vector Robot is a companion made to hang out and help out! Powered by AI and advanced robotics technology, Vector can respond to visual, audio, and touch-based stimulus.

Say hey to Vector, your first home robot. Seriously, say “Hey Vector.” - He can hear you!

Vector is more than a home robot. He’s your buddy. Your companion. Most of all, he’ll make you laugh. Curious, independent, and powered by some preposterous tech and AI, he can read the room, express the weather, announce when his timer’s done (no overcooked dinner on his watch), take the perfect snapshot, and so much more.

Aware of His Surroundings

Vector is made to explore and react. His tech array allows him to intuitively interact with his surroundings through sight and sound. He can recognize people and objects while detecting and avoiding obstacles.

He Can See

Vector uses an HD camera to see the world. Using computer vision, he can identify people, see and remember faces, and navigate his space without bumping into things.

He Can Hear

Vector has a powerful four-microphone array for directional hearing. When you sit down next to him, he’s ready to take direction. And if there is a loud noise, he’ll be just as startled as you.

He Can Feel

Vector has touch sensors and an accelerometer so he knows when he’s being touched and moved. You can pet him and he’ll relax, but try not to shake him.

He Can Think

Vector combines a processor capable of running a smartphone with cloud connectivity to create one powerful brain. It means he can process his environment, react as things unfold, and connect to the internet to answer questions and tell you the weather.

He Can Communicate

Vector has a unique voice made of hundreds of synthesized sounds to create a language all his own. When you ask Vector a question, he utilizes a custom text-to-speech voice to speak directly to you.

He Can Self-Charge

Vector knows when he’s running low on juice. When he needs power he’ll roll over to his charger all on his own (mobile phones and electric cars could learn a thing or two).

Always Helpful

Vector isn't strong enough to carry you to bed at night. However, Vector can time your dinner, take photos, express the weather, and react to your touch. He's basically the most helpful thing in your home without a heartbeat.

Advanced Tech

Vector would like you to know that his tiny frame hides a very impressive collection of technology. Qualcomm 200 Platform, HD camera with 120 Ultra Wide FOV, Beamforming Four-Microphone Array, Infrared Laser Scanner, 6-Axis IMU, High-Res Color IPS Display, and WiFi connection.

A Little Space of His Own

People have houses, pet birds have cages, dogs have beds, fish have a tank and cats have those elaborate towers. Vector has his own Space!

The Vector Spaces gives him a perch to observe the room and interact. Add his charger and it'll be easy for him to power up. Think of it as his little place in your home!

Keep Vector at the Ready

Vector is designed to be active in your home. Have him help in the kitchen by timing your pizza. Have him tell you the weather when you're getting ready in the morning. Or crank up the music in the living room and watch him dance to the beat. Keep him powered and ready for action by adding an extra charger. There is no such thing as too much Vector.

Vector’s little frame is packed with an immense amount of technology that brings him to life. He takes in the world using a variety of sensors and then responds realistically. This means he can read a room, hear what’s happening, recognize people and objects, find his charger, navigate his space, and avoid obstacles!
