The HEXBUG Crab is a micro robot that reacts to light and noise. It’s one of several models of micro robots available from HEXBUG. If you’re looking for some small last minute gifts or stocking stuffers for someone interested in robots or for kids who are interested in robotics, the HEXBUG Crab is worth a look.
The HEXBUG Crab comes packaged in his own plastic dome. The HEXBUG Crab is pretty tiny, measuring 2.8 inches x 2.4 inches x 2 inches and weighing in at 1.1 ounces. It’s powered by two replaceable button-cell batteries (AG13/LR44). Batteries come with the Crab though, so out of the box you’re up and running quickly
Features
The perfect pet for kids and right at home alongside those at the office!The mini-robot HEXBUG Crab will crawl its way into your affections.
"Feelers" on the crabs legs are actually sensors that help it maneuver around obstacles.
Shy around noise, HEXBUG Crab scuttles away from loud noises. More highly evolved than its robotic bug cousins, when programmed, HEXBUG Crab uses its light sensors to scurry away to dark spaces, just like a real crab.

The HEXBUG Crab scuttles across the floor in a sideways walk, changing direction at loud noises, and searching for shadows to hide in. It's the latter feature that makes him easier to misplace than the Original bugs, which continue to hum when stuck under a couch. I recommend you keep a keen eye on him when he's on the move, or he could easily disappear until next year's spring cleaning.
Bottom Line
The HEXBUG Crab is a fun little toy and an interesting introduction to robotics. The HEXBUG Crab comes in a variety of colors that include Indigo, Turquoise, Green, Red, and Black, and comes ready to launch with two button cell batteries included. The Crab certainly encourages experimentation. How loud does a sound need to be to make it switch directions? How dark does a hiding place have to be? It’s also a fun way to drive your dog or cat nuts. The Crab will appeal to a lot of audiences too, kids had as much fun with the Crab as adults did. So, bottom line is that the Hexbug Crab’s £12.90 price tag is very reasonable for a fun toy and it would make a great stocking stuffer this holiday season.
You can purchase the HEXBUG Crab from TECHNOLOGY DISCOUNT (online Ebay Store).
