Review: An inexpensive neat little multi role robot - It's smaller than you think. White bottle cap in the pics is for scale. It's a normal sized cap you'd get from a bottled water or whatever. Up front, this product is still new to me. I have not tried any programming. Think of it as more of a neat mobile camera tech toy, not a roving security guide for your home. More on that below. Think of this a a cool remote camera toy. Seems to be built well. I was able to connect to it from my phone over at another house. It has some adjustable settings. The auto on option on the IR nightvision is fun. The auto off doesn't off as well as it should IMO, and the only adjustment for those settings is high or low. This is fun, and I love it. I consider this a cool tech toy for children ages 8-90. Seems safe enough for youger kids. I've actively tried finding pinch points and the like, but I haven't found any. The only safety issue might be hair getting stuck around the axels (kind of like your vacuum cleaner!), so don't drive it on your head, or over your little sisters hair while she's coloring. I haven't done more than basic pathing to try it out. The more turns in you do in a route, the more off it looks like it becomes. Whatever "AI" they say is in here, is not what I would call AI. It seems like it's just trying to match the distances and turns by using "muscle memory". It doesn't have anything more than the most basic accident avoidance. Mine some how routed into a door frame. One side a wall, one side an open doorway. It turned right, wall. Turned left sees open door way. So it knows at the very least, it has an obstruction right in from of it, but just to the left is a wide open space. What it should do is back away from the object it's pressing it's nose too, reassess the options with the camera(it's pretty limited in sensors and such), then proceed through the open door and gt back on route. In reality, it wiggles around a bit more, then calls out to you to help unstuck it. It has almost no obstacle avoidance. It wont know what to do if someone put a box down along it's path, it won't avoid the chew toy. It does have some avoidance, which I found amusing. It can detect people and pets, and I'm assuming smaller people too, don't have one here to test it on. You can set it to follow you, or your pet. It doesn't work great, but it does work some. I thought it was fun and cute. Just don't try to walk towards it or pick it up when it's looking at you. I backs away in robo-terror, trying to escape the giant coming at it so it doesn't get stomped on. It really did throw it in reverse and back away at full speed until it found the wall Mine has connected to the charger 100% of the time, on both mecanum wheels and the tracks. I think the key is a solid bright(not shiney) surface behind the charger to give it more contrast. A couple times it will do some wiggles, or one time it pulled away about a foot, turned around to scope out the scene another time, and then backed in again. Nailed it that time. So sometimes it reconnects quick, sometimes it needs to have a think, but it's always managed to dock at the charger for me Remember, this is a budget robot. They say that it doesn't have auto mapping or navigation because of "privacy issues". Which is mostly bs. You could always add them with on/off options, or make another model that can do it. That excuse seems like it came from the Public Relations department. I think the real reason it doesn't have those features isn't because of privacy. It's because more sensors and better programing is means higher production costs, meaning higher retail price. Which is fine! I'm happy to have this relatively inexpensive little dood rolling around my place. But make another model that DOES have your features. They already offer to store the pics and vids from it on the cloud, but personally if I'm already sending pictures of my family and the layout of my house off to a remote cloud, it's not that far of a stretch to just allow it map and navigate itself. It has programming which I haven't looked at. It has pathing, which I've barely touched. I suppose you could make a path and a schedule to run it so it can do security sweeps around your house. Might work for you, might not from what I've read. Also, this thing isn't loud, but it's not a "Stealth Device". Unless you have a lot going on around you, you'll here it creeping up on you. What you can do to check on your house, is drive it yourself from your phone, anywhere you have cell service. Play with the animals while you're at work. Use the audio function to ask your significant other to start a bath for you so it's ready when your home, because texting is so 2023. Some other review said he was using it to check under his cars and stuff, so he could check the undercarriage without lifting the car. Someone else had said he was away from home and used it to shut a door the kids left open. I've tested this. It is torquey enough to shut interior doors. It can move my front door, but I doubt it could do it with enough force or fast enough to shut it. Finally... Some other reviewer said "it wont dock with the base station with the tracks on because it can't crab walk now. It tries to move sideways but can and just sits there"....... Bruh, you need to switch it from wheel to track mode on the controller. Same if your putting the wheels back on, put it back in wheeled mode. It changes how the bot moves, and it's smart enough to adapt to either choice of locomotion. You can tell right on the controller what you have the setting on. If the left thumb stick only offers forward and reverse, you're in tracked mode. If it has 4 direction indicators on it, it means it's still in wheeled mode.
Review: Good for tech geek - Awesome little robot, it is fun and really easy to use. The setup was very easy as well, it connects to my phone and wifi no problem. Controlling the robot is also easy, it’s very fun because I can make it drift lol. Into the security part of this, I think this is very sophisticated. I setup a path for the robot to go through every time I ask it to, I can also set it as a motion sensor and have the siren rings when it detects motion (you can actually set it to exclude different motions such as your pets). Speaking of pets, our dogs are very curious about this little robot and would try to play with it every time the robot is moving. Overall, I think the image recognition on the robot is very nice because it can automatically return to it’s home once it detects the checkered label on the home. I haven’t tried this feature yet, but it looks like you can setup your own automation by using the drag and drop feature from the software. :)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I see the video remotely?**
A: The Moorebot Scout App allows you to monitor your home from anywhere in the world up to 1080P image quality on both Android and IOS devices. Two-way voice is also supported. Scout must be set up on your Home Wi-fi network to enable this feature.

**Q: How do I charge? How long will Scout work before needing to recharge?**
A: Scout requires a USB 2.0 Type A adapter with 5V / >2A output. Scout is not compatible with USB Type C fast chargers. The battery can last over 2 hours, 1 hour using night vision, and will take up to 3 hours to charge from a completely depleted state.

**Q: How to set up patrol?**
A: Scout doesn't scan and build map due to privacy reasons. It follows pre-programmed path by user using Scout's App. Open space has higher chance to complete patrol. If too many obstacles, the bot could give up and try to return to the charger.

**Q: Important note if WiFi can't connect!!!**
A: Reset Scout! PWD: r0123456. IOS users need to grant permission to Scout App. Some models require airplane mode to connect directly. But to config. home Wi-Fi, the phone needs data service at the end of pairing (via home Wi-Fi or exit airplane mode. )

**Q: How to achieve better navigation accuracy?**
A: OTA update to the latest firmware. Calibrate the sensors from time to time, from App setup section. Consider to convert to Track version using 3D printer or model E. The track mechanic files are loaded on this detail page, download section.

### ⭐ Extremely Dissatisfied and Unsafe for Children
*by B***E on May 13, 2023*

I recently purchased the Moorebot Scout - Tiny AI-Powered Smart Camera Mobile Robot with high hopes of enhancing home security and monitoring capabilities. Unfortunately, this product turned out to be a major disappointment, and I would strongly advise against purchasing it, especially if you have children in your household. First and foremost, the so-called "smart" AI capabilities of this robot are severely lacking. The human and pets recognition feature is incredibly unreliable and often fails to accurately identify individuals or animals. This undermines the very purpose of having a monitoring device in the first place, as it cannot be trusted to reliably alert you to potential threats or activities. Additionally, the integration with popular voice assistants like Alexa and Google Home is clunky and inconsistent. The promised seamless compatibility is nothing but false advertising. Setting up the device to work with these assistants is a frustrating and time-consuming process, and even when successfully connected, the commands are frequently misunderstood or ignored. One of the most concerning aspects of the Moorebot Scout is its lack of safety features, particularly when it comes to children. The FWD Mecanum Wheels, while touted as a selling point, actually pose a significant risk in a household with young kids. The robot's unpredictable movements and lack of obstacle detection make it a hazard, as it can inadvertently collide with furniture or, worse, cause harm to a child who might be in its path. Moreover, the night vision capability of this smart camera is extremely disappointing. The quality of the recorded footage in low-light conditions is grainy, blurry, and practically unusable. Considering that a significant portion of monitoring and security needs arise during nighttime, the poor night vision renders the device almost useless in those situations. Lastly, the auto patrol and docking feature, which is supposed to provide convenience and efficiency, falls far short of expectations. The robot frequently gets stuck or disoriented, often failing to return to its charging dock or losing its way during scheduled patrols. This unreliability defeats the purpose of having an autonomous monitoring device and leaves you questioning its overall effectiveness. In conclusion, I strongly advise against purchasing the Moorebot Scout - Tiny AI-Powered Smart Camera Mobile Robot. Its unreliable AI capabilities, lackluster integration with voice assistants, absence of safety features for children, poor night vision, and overall unreliability make it an incredibly frustrating and potentially hazardous product. Look elsewhere for a more reliable and child-friendly home monitoring solution.
