Pollen Robotics released a tutorial demonstrating how to install the NFC accessory kit into the head of the Reachy Mini Wireless, thereby enabling magnetic accessory detection. According to its description, installation requires only four screws and no glue; once installed, the robot can automatically recognize NFC accessories placed on its head. According to the tutorial, each accessory can unlock a different personality in the Reachy Mini conversation app, or trigger custom actions; the kit also includes additional NFC tags and magnets for users to make their own accessories that interact with the AI. Pollen then showcased an application example: after wearing the NFC wizard hat, the Reachy Mini transforms into "Reachy Mini the Sorcerer," singing a Halloween song made with Suno. Pollen stated that the wizard hat accessory is not yet available in the store.
