public interface IInteractiveRobot
extends IBasicRobot

A robot interface for creating an interactive type of robot like Robot and AdvancedRobot that is able to receive interactive events from the keyboard or mouse. If a robot is directly inherited from this class it will behave as similar to a IBasicRobot. If you need it to behave similar to a IAdvancedRobot or ITeamRobot, you should inherit from these interfaces instead, as these are inherited from this interface.
