The name then came to apply to the successful line of robots manufactured by the Tomy company. The initial Omnibot was announced with expectations of restoring popular interest in robots and with the success of the Omnibots, the Omnibot range quickly expanded. The original Omnibot became the cover photo for the 1980s book, "The World of Robots" and recently the Omnibot 2000 graced the cover of "Toy Robots from Japan" by Alan Bunkum. The Omnibot ® , MK II, Hearoid ® , OOM ® , Robie ® Sr and the Omnibot ® 2000 had a cassette tape player built into the chest area of the robot, which slid out like a drawer to reveal the cassette and could record and playback sequences of commands, as well as regular audio recordings. The built in digital clock with timers and alarms allowed the playback of movement recordings at specified times. All the robots were able to broadcast speech from the remote control handset through a speaker on the robot. The Omnibot and Robie Sr were similar in operation while the Hearoid, OOM, MK II and the Omnibot 2000 had other functions that specialized them. All could carry objects in one way or another.
