"Hexbug is a six-legged toy (http://www.worldsmartbuy.com) robot inspired by BEAM technology. Hexbug has a few simple behaviors. Once switched on, Hexbug will move forward with a classic alternating tripod gait. If an obstruction touches either of the antennae, or if it detects a loud sound it will back up to the left and then continue forward. The name Hexbug however has more to do with the shape of the packaging it is sold in than the number of legs it has. Hexbug was created by Innovation First, Inc. and is distributed by Bandai in Japan." quote from wikipedia
They have also released various other Hexbugs, which some is remotely controlled
