AI Voice Kit +$1,392
A dedicated AI mainboard with its own speaker and microphone runs private LLMs onboard. Talk to R2 by voice – in character, with his whole film history in his head – no cloud account needed.
Voice + Vision +$2,472
Adds multiple onboard cameras. R2 sees the room, understands what is going on, recognises faces – and runs Sentry mode, reacting to, stopping or joking with passers-by.
Voice + Vision + Movement +$3,232
The AI takes command of R2’s own boards: he roams, searches for an object or a person, follows you around and operates every tool he has – on his own. This is where the replica becomes the droid.
Most popularAI remote with screen +$950
The handheld controller shown above: a live screen for text chat, status and telemetry, module toggles and quick actions – next to the classic drive sticks.
Most popularAll kits are V5 hardware, installed and tested in our studio – for new builds and, as easy-mount upgrades, for droids already out there. Additional camera and sensor modules are on the way. Prices are direct-order prices; tick the kits in the configurator – dependencies are added automatically.
