Vision

• Vector recognizes faces. When he’s making eye contact, try slowly moving your head left and right so he’ll follow you
• Vector recognizes people he’s met. When he recognizes you, he might say your name and is especially happy to see you if it’s been a while
• Vector recognizes motion. Try tapping your fingers on a surface directly in front of him

Physical

• Vector will occasionally ask for a Fist Bump. Don’t leave him hanging!
