RC Helicopter Operated with Voice
electric radio controlled helicopter, controlled with voice
Radio Controlled Helicopter is not a unique toy anymore, but following newly added auto obstruction detection and voice command capability will add a great surprise for your kids. This RC Toy is built by Nikko and is called the Voice Controlled Voice-Heli and although it is voice controlled it still comes provided with a traditional RC unit allowing you to fly it with a controller rather than voice.
Sensors are built in to the helicopter that can sense the ceiling and if detected the helicopter will stop rising rather than you having to panic.
iPhone as Remote Control for RC Helicopter

When you fly a Remote Control Helicopter, one of the hardest things to learn is how to control the remote helicopter that is facing towards you. When the helicopter is facing away from you, all the controls act pretty much like they do when you are flying a real helicopter. If you want to go forward, you push the control forward, or away from you. But if a Radio Controlled Helicopter is facing towards you, pushing the control forward makes the helicopter come at you.
The solution to this problem has always been to put a little camera and a radio transmitter on the helicopter and fly it by looking from the point of view of the helicopter. With the Parrot AR Drone, you leverage the radio and video display already existing in your iPhone. All that is needed is a helicopter camera that works over WiFi.
There is no reason why this idea wouldn’t work on any Remote Control helicopter (or RC boat / car / truck / plane / hovercraft / or what have you, for that matter, though I don’t think it works well with tank) but the helicopter and submarine are probably the most visually compelling idea.
