Again, like I've said before - technology is netural. It only matters on how people use them. Little kids with robots, is perfectly fine. There's nothing wrong with the robots. They are just there, waiting for people to command them (so far anyway).
I regret remarking about the robots (but not about that Camera/robot), but that Sniper Nerf Gun, I still stand on. True, child's play doesn't have modern combat exist in them, however the motions of using that Nerf gun is quite similar to the real deal.
