#parrot jumping sumo

So when we heard about the Mini Drone and the Jumping Sumo, we immediately visited the Parrot booth at the CES halls. The Jumping Sumo, on the other hand, looks much more fun (those glowing eyes add some spunk) with its large spherical body and a pair of thick wheels. Parrot, the company resposible for the AR.Drone, has introduced their latest additions to their family of wireless toys - the MiniDrone and the Jumping Sumo. Next is the Jumping Sumo, a wheel-based drone that comes equipped with a spring-loaded mechanism that allows it to jump 3 feet into the air. We managed to grab a Jumping Sumo at the Duty Free shops in Taiwan this week during our trip to the Netherlands. We first saw the Jumping Sumo and the Mini Drone last January during CES 2014 in Las Vegas. The Jumping Sumo is a remote-controlled bicycle that connects to an Android or iOS smartphone via a dedicated WiFi channel. Here's a quick video we shot of the Jumping Sumo.
