And you can control them over the web! The surveyorbot has a webcam, so you can see where your little bot is going. There is a little lag between when you send a command and when the surveyorbot responds, but it’s not too bad with broadband. You can even take snapshots of your little adventure. Here I am face to face with another surveyorbot that wants to ram me!

BP Surveyor

You can also find codes located on billboards throughout the environment that will provide you with 30 seconds of extra time to control the surveyorbots. Try your hand at BP’s Surveyorbots yourself!
