Questions about Robonova

Hi am loking at buying a robonova as my first robot, but i have a few questions.

1. what does the IR control that comes with it look like?

2. How easy is it to add bluetooth instead, is a step by step guide available? (I have bluetooth already on my laptop)

3. Will he work on carpet?

4. Is it one key press on the remote for one movement, or can he be programmed to do series of say 3 minutes without having to press any buttons.

Sorry if my questions are basic but would really like to get into robotics and need a bit of guidance.

Thanks

1. Image

The sensor you can see glued to the top of the head on most RN1. It's a small receiver

2. Haven't done it myself

3. The original moves work but not very well. But nothing is stopping you from creating your own that can work.

4. Pressing a button just activates a program. That program can be anything from just a move to an autonomous AI.
