3 IR Receivers - These are used to decode the signals from the remote, and may also be linked in to his object detection / avoidance.
2 Audio Sensors - These sensors sense sharp noises and determine there which side of the robot they came from.
Left / Right Hand
1 Touch Sensor - Each hand has a touch sensors for detecting obstacles and for triggering his programs.
