Comparison

Similar to the Apollo robot, the Ozobot 2.0 Bit is completely programmable. You can program it to dance, race, or battle other robots. It, however, is more suited for young boys and girls as it is an entry level or starter robot kit.

The Ozobot 2.0 Bit is also very small as it measures just 1 inch tall unlike the A.I. Frame Apollo Robot which is nearly 9 inches tall.

Another toy robot that is very much like the A.I. Frame Apollo Robot is the Bioloid Robotis Premium which features various sensors like IR, distance measurement, gyro, among others.

Like the Apollo Robot, the Bioloid Robotis Premium is a DIY robot starter kit. You can build a robot from scratch and then eventually add more functions to the machine. But the Bioloid Robotis Premium is so expensive that it is almost twice the price of the A.I. Frame Apollo Robot.
