Slot racing cars are now officially a thing of the past.
“We see Anki Drive as a milestone in consumer robotics, and a demonstration of how transformative robotics and artificial intelligence technologies can be to categories that have yet to be touched by them,” said Boris Sofman, co-founder and CEO of Anki.
“At Anki, our design and engineering have to work together in perfect synchronicity – our software depends on perfectly designed hardware to execute precisely, and vice versa,” said Hanns Tappeiner, co-founder and president of Anki. “We’ve looked at each component of Anki Drive with an eye on design – from the way the track looks, to the UI in the app…even the packaging went through countless iterations before we landed on just the right premium feel.”
