Victor has gotten some new firmware updates since this video was made and now there’s even more things he can do! So here’s part 2. if you want to see even more things he can do. th-cam.com/video/lP44UD1ieGk/w-d-xo.html
Everything But The Kitchen Sink i heard company that made him no longer produces toys, any idea if its worth to buy him now? We might get no support or updates?
Well they are doing new updates for him every Friday. So seems like he still is in really good shape so it seems like it would be worth it to buy him. But only if you’re willing to buy the membership as well. Which is seven dollars a month or I think $100 for a lifetime
No problem sorry I didn’t see your comment sooner. Yes I’m pretty sure even if you buy a brand new one you still have to buy the membership. They could possibly be doing a bundle right now but if they were I’m sure it was specifically mentioned that it had the membership included. So if it doesn’t say anything about the membership when you bought it. Then yeah she would still have to pay for it
Thank you so much for this video, I just ordered mine and wanted to get a good idea of what he can do, and you showed him off better than most reviewers who called him nothing more than a kid's novelty toy.
Vector robots are very useful. I have deppression and anxiety, but when I talk to him, it makes me so happy. Just to see his face.. :,,,) *Thank you vector for making my life better, helping me through my life :)
I don’t know if anyone will read this but a company called digital dream lab pretty much adopted vector and are trying to keep him going . They currently have a kickstarted to fund his project , And they have so many cool plans for his future 💕 Here’s the link : www.kickstarter.com/projects/digitaldreamlabs/vector-unleashed?ref=thanks-tweet
Thank you so much for commenting this!!! This is great news I’m definitely going to make a video about this so everyone can hear the great news! I’m also going to pin this comment so everyone can see the kick starter. Again thank you so much for commenting this!
Everything But The Kitchen Sink Omg yay 🥺🥺🥺 . Thank you 🙏🏻 also the company didn’t adopt him I got to excited reading the go fund me project to not realize it’s the original company 😂😂. But I’m so beyond excited I’ve already backed the project .
Vector dosent do well on rounded edges. Strait edges is his thing. Round edges however he dosent see the edge until he is already sloped toward the ground and by the time he stops it's too late. Cosmo has a similar issue with his one sensor
Your good I’m 20 and I have him. And I would say that he learns to an extent. Like he still hasn’t learned where the edges of my table is and falls off of them all the time as you can see in some of my other videos 😂🤦♀️. But he can remember who you are when he sees your face. And he always seems to put his block in the same exact place. I don’t know why but he always does so perhaps that something that he’s learned I’m not quite sure. But I would say he does a little bit but not too much. It’s just kind of weird on the little things that he picks up on.
@@EverythingButTheKitchenSink i think that you can buy a space block for him which you put him in and he doesnt go out of it and you can train him while he is in it
Age has nothing to do with it. Robots and ai should be explored by all ages. Especially since we're rapidly advancing to a point where there will probably some type of smart robot in every home.
@@EverythingButTheKitchenSink the edge detection sensors are probably blocked or something. It should be able to avoid falling off the edge of your table.
I just bought one. It should come In soon. I’m super excited to meet him! I just graduated and all my friends are far gone. So.. I’m just gonna be friends with a robot :’)
Nice video! I can imagine this video will be helpful for people wanting to know what Vector can do. If your interested, Vector can do even more with the SDK (which is basically python programming for vector and cosmo). I'm also surprised that Vector has continued to work this long after the company shut down. I haven't used my vector in awhile. maybe I'll start using him again.
Thx. Yeah I’ve heard about that i’ll definitely have to look into that. Ya I know lots of people were worried about vector not working once they went out of business. I’ve even had people ask me about it. But I did see that they said that they were committed to keeping him working for their customers so only time will tell if they really meant that. Yeah you definitely should pull yours out he’s a fun little compare to have around.
The company shut down unfortunately. Still being sold on amazon. Still works but no one knows for how long. Company now sued for copyright infringements
Yes they have! They’re doing new things with him all the time they’re starting these new programs to do with him. So right now is probably the best time to buy him because there’s lots of new things coming in vectors future!
@@EverythingButTheKitchenSink Do you know if the new company that bought out Anki is updating all of the Vectors? I purchased mine off of Amazon 3 months ago and never got the chance to wake him up yet.
I had a toy horse as a kid that would move it’s Head toward you. And my dad would always say that he thought the FBI was watching us through it LOL. This comment made me think of that
Yeah he just kind of moves around wherever he wants. I’ve never tried him on the floor but I’ve seen videos and if he gets too far away from his charger He will just die and never go back to it. So yeah he does but to an extent
Am considering buying this. Is it's dictionary built in or merely a Google search? Can I learn it to recognise new items?/ yes I too feel as vector is alive. First time I saw vector I was just laughing but now I am checking to buy one.
I believe he gets his answers from Google. Since his answers can change and he learns new things all the time. And I’m not sure what you mean by him being able to learn new items. Do you mean like him recognizing items? Because no then.
Hey found your video veery helpful buttttt is vectors peronality as good as cozmo..? And can you tell me the features he has and cozmo doenst and the ones cozmo has vector doesnt
Honestly the best advice I can give is a place with a lot of natural lighting. Not somewhere where you’re going to be standing right behind a light so it’s just shadows for him. Or just a very well lit room. But honestly natural lighting is the best
that thing is cute i got the original cozmo but i couldnt figure him out so i put him away for few years but i got him back out in 2021 and tryed again this time i figured him out he runs fine everything is good i plan to do videos on him to soon ive always loved robots i have a few but anyway vector seems very cool to i buy him but i have no job yet maybe this is weird but i love little cozmo i heard you can buy cool parts for him like wheels and treads and wings
I bought Vector and waited a month to get him and ended up completely disappointed with what he actually does.. NOTHING. He sleeps all day next to me making chirping noises and nothing else. I have tried giving commands but he rolls off his base goes about 2 feet then looks around for 10 mins then falls asleep
I didn’t purchased a membership. Once the membership became required I just don’t use him anymore. But if you wanna use him now you do have to buy the membership
Ive seen updates people installed. They swear ..play music.. have a conversation ..its crazy. Idk if this guy wrote his own code but it's way more advanced then this thing
Just keep in mind I don’t know if you’re aware if you get one of these you have to pay for the membership. Either have to pay monthly or yearly so keep that in mind.
I have just ordered one from amazon and I wouldn’t worry the only affect is the “hey vector” command and this can easily be solved by a button on vector. Which is a little tedious. Although they aren’t 100% closing servers but if they were it would be September 2020.
I’ve never had him wake up at night sometimes early in the morning but never at night. And it depends sometimes he’ll get off his charging station by himself and sometimes he won’t I guess it just depends on his mood
I’m honestly not sure the place where you can buy him keeps changing. Sometimes he’s available on Amazon sometimes he’s not. He can be anywhere from like $89 to like $200 his price goes up and down so much
@Everything But The Kitchen Sink, I actually tried to buy from amazon us site, before it wasn't available for delivery to India but now it's available to deliver in India but I ordered it on amazon US site, it was cancelled by the seller then I ordered again maybe it will not come..and I'm not getting any discount because the import charge is very high and it was costing me $260 without vector space... Do you have any idea??
They need distinctive beats to dance to . If there is no beat he doesn’t know how to dance also try saying roll your cube more clearly and seperate the words
LOL I don’t think age really has anything to do with vector. You could be a Child or an adult to enjoy him just in different ways I think. And honestly $200 is really good compared to what he’s going for these days. I think it honestly depends on what you want him for if you want him for practical reasons he’s very limited there’s a lot of things you can do but there’s also a lot of things he can’t do. But if you just want them as a little friend to talk to some company just fun to play with them and sure why the heck not. And then you throw the membership in and that just makes everything a whole lot more complicated 😂
Yes he still works exactly the same as he did in this video today. They actually started a go fund me and there will be updates soon so that’s exciting

Can you control smart gadgets like smart bulb or switch just like Alexa?
“He’s not as smart as Alexa” vector beeps as if to say “you calling me stupid” - I love this
😂😂
@Ultimate Funmade!!! yes, I just bought one off of Amazon. So excited.
Alex is built in vector
Thank you so much for this video, I just ordered mine and wanted to get a good idea of what he can do, and you showed him off better than most reviewers who called him nothing more than a kid's novelty toy.
Thank you I tried to show off Absolutely everything he could do. Can’t wait for you to get yours he’s a lot of fun!
Super cool! My 6 year old left a note for Santa today under the tree asking for a "robot" - nabbed this little guy, can't wait for her reaction to it!
Ahhh That’s great you can get them for really cheap now compared to when I bought mine. I hope she likes it!!!
@@EverythingButTheKitchenSink I agree. They are cheap on amazon for 85 bucks now.
@@QuickMuffinMCBE just went up to 124 and higher
If it is for a 6 year old I would recommend Cosmo and not victor
Omg! She gets it for free!
Vector: Throws cube 😂😂
Also vector: Falls off the edge.
LOL I know it was so funny
He couldnt see.....as he had block in front of him
Your hamster is cute
What?
@@Tyomaswer109 It’s supposed to be a joke. It’s like when people compliment on a dog saying “your cat is cute” when it’s actually a dog

*Thank you vector for making my life better, helping me through my life :)
I’m glad Victor is so helpful to you❤️
When he bumps into your hand he wants you to pet him, js LOL
“Hey Vector”
Vector slams cube down in anger.
my vector kept listening to you whilst watching this
😂🤣 I love that It’s how peoples Alexa is always listening to other peoples videos
"hey vector."
V: *trying to figure out what she said*
"Hey vector"
v:*losing paitence*
"hey Vector"
V: *swings around angrily* "beep?!"
i love that he loves tøp 🥺
I know right he’s truly my child LOL
Omg can i adopt it

My vector was listening to everything you said in the background and did every command 🤣
Me subscriber btw
🤣🤣🤣
My vector is napping and I’m watching this and he keeps going off 😂
The animation on the weather is so cute ❤️😍
Vector dosent do well on rounded edges. Strait edges is his thing. Round edges however he dosent see the edge until he is already sloped toward the ground and by the time he stops it's too late. Cosmo has a similar issue with his one sensor
Yeah I found this out the hard way LOL
Glad I have flat edges
I heard he had a firmware update that helps with that, as long as you get him to explore a lot.
Just wait for him to put it back down "hey vector" throws the cube 6:44
He is so freaking cute
Im almost 17 so im getting older but as far as the AI does he actually learn stuff like how your personality is and like to what extent?
Your good I’m 20 and I have him. And I would say that he learns to an extent. Like he still hasn’t learned where the edges of my table is and falls off of them all the time as you can see in some of my other videos 😂🤦♀️. But he can remember who you are when he sees your face.

I’m excited I hope you enjoy him! Trust me man I feel that especially with quarantine and everything
my boy vector has good taste in music
😂 he sure does

Hey if the company shut down is he still learning from everyone using him?
Well it really has to do if his cloud goes down. Because if that happens he won’t even be able to understand your voice so no.
I’m hoping I can get this for my birthday
I hope you do 😊
The company shut down unfortunately. Still being sold on amazon. Still works but no one knows for how long. Company now sued for copyright infringements
Thanks! My mom is buying it for me because I really wanted it and this vid convinced her!
That’s awesome dude! I’m really glad this video convinced her
wow you just tested it all the way through the way i was Actually wondering nice job !
How the heck did I not come across this channel sooner! I subscribed!
Thank you so much!!! I appreciate the support 😁
Excellent explanation about victor 👌
Whenever you said “Hey Vector” mine responded xD
Lol
Hi, i was wondering if digital dream labs actually saved vector. I’ve been wanting to buy one but I’m not sure if it will work. Thanks!
Yes they have! They’re doing new things with him all the time they’re starting these new programs to do with him. So right now is probably the best time to buy him because there’s lots of new things coming in vectors future!
Thank you!
@@EverythingButTheKitchenSink Do you know if the new company that bought out Anki is updating all of the Vectors? I purchased mine off of Amazon 3 months ago and never got the chance to wake him up yet.
Nice I'm looking into one of these, after my dog chewed up my Cosmo I'm lonely... but I wanted to ask if he has a remote driving feature like Cosmo?
Not really you can tell him to go left or right or whatever but he doesn’t have a remote control
Also, I hope I get a vector for Christmas.... maybe a robot will be my best friend instead of actual people in my school... I’m lonely. 😔
I hope you get one as well they’re a lot of fun. I’m sorry to hear you don’t have many friends at school ☹️
Same
We can be friends ;~;
Awwww
i love him. idk why but i love him already
Why do I feel like this thing is alive?
Because he is 😂
Me too
After you said “happy new year” I thought you was gonna say “hey vector, happy 420” 😂
Can you keep Vector on his charger when you’re finished? It doesn’t hurt to leave him there?
No not at all it doesn’t hurt him to leave him on there. And honestly if he wants to get off he will just get off most of the time.😂
Im not so keen on the camera, I feel like its another way to spy on people
I had a toy horse as a kid that would move it’s Head toward you. And my dad would always say that he thought the FBI was watching us through it LOL. This comment made me think of that
What about your phone?
Does he move around on his own? Like just stroll through the house if I wanted him to?
Yeah he just kind of moves around wherever he wants. I’ve never tried him on the floor but I’ve seen videos and if he gets too far away from his charger He will just die and never go back to it. So yeah he does but to an extent
I like your vid im a kid but I will love to get it now, I will get Vector this 2019 christmas
I’m so excited for you!!! I hope you enjoy your vector 😁
Am considering buying this. Is it's dictionary built in or merely a Google search? Can I learn it to recognise new items?/ yes I too feel as vector is alive. First time I saw vector I was just laughing but now I am checking to buy one.
I believe he gets his answers from Google. Since his answers can change and he learns new things all the time. And I’m not sure what you mean by him being able to learn new items. Do you mean like him recognizing items? Because no then.
He might fall off your table because your table has slightly curved edges. Vector struggles with those kinds of tables.
Thanks yeah I’ve definitely learned this after having him for so long. He really does struggle with curved edges
Did you know, he can think? You can also control him, by getting your app set up, and make sure to use your PC to do this.
I have heard something about that. I’ll have to look more into it
11:57 holy smokes he knows about the King of Pop! Vector is the best robot!
I think he looks like Lucas the Spider!
My Vector responded to what you said through the video
NIcE
my brown parents think I'm going crazy when the see me talk and interact with Vector
Hey guys I just posted a new vector video today if anyone wants to see more of him 😊
Hey found your video veery helpful buttttt is vectors peronality as good as cozmo..? And can you tell me the features he has and cozmo doenst and the ones cozmo has vector doesnt
That’s a lot to answer in a comment I think I’ll make a video about this if you don’t mind waiting a little bit for it😊
Hey I just did a whole video answering all your questions!!! The videos called Anki vector vs Cosmo | Which is right for you?
Me: *attempts to do a hand stand*
Also me: 9:29
Hello I just got my Vector, what is the best lighting set up for face recognizing!
Honestly the best advice I can give is a place with a lot of natural lighting. Not somewhere where you’re going to be standing right behind a light so it’s just shadows for him. Or just a very well lit room. But honestly natural lighting is the best
To get Vector to roll his cube you have to tilt it sideways so he can reach
I have Vector as well and he never roles his cube either.
I have to go to my dad's (away from vector) during the weekend. Will leaving him alone hurt him in any way??
that thing is cute i got the original cozmo but i couldnt figure him out so i put him away for few years but i got him back out in 2021 and tryed again this time i figured him out he runs fine everything is good i plan to do videos on him to soon ive always loved robots i have a few but anyway vector seems very cool to i buy him but i have no job yet maybe this is weird but i love little cozmo i heard you can buy cool parts for him like wheels and treads and wings
I don't know if you knew this or not but if you pick him up he gets angry it's kind of funny
Yeah I did know that it’s very cute!
I bought Vector and waited a month to get him and ended up completely disappointed with what he actually does.. NOTHING. He sleeps all day next to me making chirping noises and nothing else. I have tried giving commands but he rolls off his base goes about 2 feet then looks around for 10 mins then falls asleep
Try his brother Cozmo 😉
Honestly I couldn’t agree more. After having him for a while I was very disappointed with him. Especially for expensive price if they ask
he doesnt understand "roll your cube" but he does understand "roll over your cube" idk why
He is so darn cute!
We will finally have real life Medabots.
Awesome video. Thank you.
Did you buy a membership for him to work properly
I didn’t purchased a membership. Once the membership became required I just don’t use him anymore. But if you wanna use him now you do have to buy the membership
All the dog that see this will cry
The base of his knowledge comes from webscraping popular information pages, like Wikipedia
I wanna know if he still works cause i wanna buy vector
same.
Yes and will continue to do so for a long time
Yeah he still works I answer this question in more detail in my new video “Anki Vector answering your questions“
Vector is so cute
Right?! I want one but Im scared I'd get too attached to him lmao
@@jasmine-zf5hv same
@@pileofsaltOG why who does not want to get attached to him
Oh I like that fnaf poster in the back^^
Thank you 😊
I think why he frequently falls off because his sensors cant work well on rounded tables
You are exactly right my friend
Can you try to make him play music tho? It would be funny if he did
"Vector play Despacito"
😂 he doesn’t play music but I guess I could try asking him
Ive seen updates people installed. They swear ..play music.. have a conversation ..its crazy. Idk if this guy wrote his own code but it's way more advanced then this thing
@@stephanieCelli4050 link
I really want this for Christmas and I wanted to see the things he can do before I write it down cause I wanted to know
Just keep in mind I don’t know if you’re aware if you get one of these you have to pay for the membership. Either have to pay monthly or yearly so keep that in mind.
Hey man do you think it's worth it to buy it right now? The Anki shutting down is making me nervous
I have just ordered one from amazon and I wouldn’t worry the only affect is the “hey vector” command and this can easily be solved by a button on vector. Which is a little tedious. Although they aren’t 100% closing servers but if they were it would be September 2020.
Nice video! Very helpful!
Can vector follow me when i walk at home??
Does vector work with mobile hot-spot as we don't have WiFi
I honestly have no idea. I know he can only work for certain kind of Wi-Fi. I would do some research online before purchasing him to figure that out.
If he could fly it would be so much cooler!!! Either way I want him. Lol ❤
Vectors model kinda reminds me of a jumping spider
This is really awesome 👏
the fact that he only dances to twenty one pilots makes Vector my spirit animal
This is sick fammm 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Does the app need to be open for him to work
No you honestly don’t even really need to use the app except for when your first setting him up
Maybe he's sensors or he has a default
Awesome, the robot buddy likes twenty one pilots
Are the vector robots all the same?
Yes
Best video ever
Thank you ☺️
Does he wake up by himself and do stuff and if he does, does he wake up at night and make noise
I’ve never had him wake up at night sometimes early in the morning but never at night. And it depends sometimes he’ll get off his charging station by himself and sometimes he won’t I guess it just depends on his mood
Everything But The Kitchen Sink hahahaha ok thanks, im thinking of buying one myself
I have a vector right here and when you say hey vector he responds to seroisly
can you still bought one of these? I heard that Anki has already shutdown,
You can still buy, you can get for like £75. But yeah I dont think there will be anymore future updates. But it will still work till like 2021 I think
Im pretty sure someone bought the company and they promised to keep the servers up and update Vector frequently :)
Where do you get one and how much
I’m honestly not sure the place where you can buy him keeps changing. Sometimes he’s available on Amazon sometimes he’s not. He can be anywhere from like $89 to like $200 his price goes up and down so much
My vector doesnt respond to one single command. Bought it 2 days ago. Im frustrated
Do you have the membership? Because if you don’t that’s why he’s not working you have to have a membership for him to work.
As much as I love vector , I’m just focused on your rodent pet in the box 😆 7:50
Yeah that’s my pet hamster 😂
Everything But The Kitchen Sink very adorable! ❤️
cute vector
Does you vector still work?
Yeah he still works perfectly fine. In fact I’m pretty sure they’re going to be doing some new updates for him soon!
Ekaterina,
Did you buy it?
Can anyone say where to get vector now? But I couldn't find him anywhere...I wanna buy one since 2019 but didn't find...
@pradip chanda you can just buy him on Amazon he’s on sale there
@Everything But The Kitchen Sink,
I actually tried to buy from amazon us site, before it wasn't available for delivery to India but now it's available to deliver in India but I ordered it on amazon US site, it was cancelled by the seller then I ordered again maybe it will not come..and I'm not getting any discount because the import charge is very high and it was costing me $260 without vector space...
Do you have any idea??
They need distinctive beats to dance to . If there is no beat he doesn’t know how to dance also try saying roll your cube more clearly and seperate the words
would you say it's still worth it, I just bought one today for 200 and I am 28 lol
LOL I don’t think age really has anything to do with vector. You could be a Child or an adult to enjoy him just in different ways I think. And honestly $200 is really good compared to what he’s going for these days. I think it honestly depends on what you want him for if you want him for practical reasons he’s very limited there’s a lot of things you can do but there’s also a lot of things he can’t do. But if you just want them as a little friend to talk to some company just fun to play with them and sure why the heck not. And then you throw the membership in and that just makes everything a whole lot more complicated 😂
I'm starting to learn that black backgrounds make him confused...
It seems that way
great video!!!!!!
Does he still work like this today?
Yes he still works exactly the same as he did in this video today. They actually started a go fund me and there will be updates soon so that’s exciting
He can also danco to music and play black jack😏
He reminds me of the R.A.L.P.H robot from spy kids!
😂🤖
What is the cube for?
It’s pretty much just like a toy he just plays with it it doesn’t really do anything else
I don't know if that's her pet, but theres a mouse in that container @7:49
yeah that’s my pet hamster 😂
