• A complete new concept for remote controlled toys.
• Coplay® will be to the toy industry what Intel® is to the computer industry ;-)
What is Coplay?
•Traditional remote controlled toys can’t easily be used in cooperative playing.
•They have few control features.
•There is no such thing as compatibility!
RC toys today:
•The Coplay® system allows up to 16 remote control handsets to be operated in the same area – on the same radio frequency!
•No changing of crystals or setting of addresses,
...just turn it on and Coplay!
The Coplay® RC Concept:
•Coplay® toys and -handsets are categorized into classes, according to type of toy.
•Within a class, any handset can be connected to any toy – by simply pressing a button!
You don’t have to buy more than one handset!
Dynamic connection:
New classes can be defined to suit any needs:
•Open classes act as industry standards, for instance for controlling toy vehicles.
•Restricted classes can be defined to suit special technical- or strategic needs of the
individual toy manufacturer.
For all kinds of toys:
1Coplay® handsets will not interfere with each other, regardless of class.
2Within a class, any handset can control any toy.
Two levels of compatibility:
• The Coplay® system will cover present- and future control needs, as new classes can be defined when new needs arises.
• For instance, the class XO-2500 will cover full
proportional steering and –speed, ignition, gear, brakes, lights and sounds, - plus control of auxillary motors for excavation arms etc.
Full flexibility:
•A wealth of sophisticated, feature-packed, compatible toys.
•They can buy one handset – and connect it to any toy.
•They can play together!
Kids just won’t accept incompatible systems!
