How To Use
You don't need a soldering iron or glue to assemble the robot, only scissors, and micro cutting pliers. You will find the explanation for every assembly phase in the user manual, so you will undoubtedly succeed in building this robot!
First of all, you need 4 AAA batteries and the assembled robot to have the max of fun. Batteries aren't included in the kit, so we advise you to take care of this beforehand.
Then all you need is to choose one of two behaviour modes: escape and follow me. If the infrared sensor is activated in the escape mode, the robot will automatically act as shocked, spreading its frill, dropping its jaw, illuminating its bicolor LED eyes and it will scurry away from you until it escapes to a safe distance. If the infrared sensor is switched to the follow-me mode using the two-way function switch, then the robot will assess danger by bluffing the attacker (unfurling and shaking its frill). When the robot does not sense danger it will proceed to follow you like a pet lizard.
To study, you need to be as attentive as you can while assembling the robot. You will learn more about robotics, engineering, and at some point even biology! After all, this isn't just a toy, but a copy of the real Chlamydosaurus kingii (frilled-neck lizard).

Fun Fact
Lizard's common name comes from the large frill around its neck, which usually stays folded against the lizard's body. C. kingii is largely arboreal, spending the majority of the time in the trees. The lizard's diet consists mainly of insects and small vertebrates. The frill-necked lizard is a relatively large lizard, averaging 85 cm (2.79 ft) in total length (including tail) and is kept as an exotic pet.
