Moddy is the third and most advanced version of the robot. It is obtained by adding a torso, two arms, and a head to the other two units. The robot can carry a tray with its two arms. Its head and big eyes making it into a really human character, reliable, and a companion to play with. It's not surprising then if Isao Hosoe, who designed "Modulus" together with Ann Marinelly and Alessio Pozzoli, also received special advice from his two children, ten-year-old Takeo and fifteen-year-old Taro.
 
The first two units were previously available on the market. Base complete with vacuum cleaner and plotter-mechanism, costs about a million lire, while the price of the Techno-cake varies from two to five million lire, depending on the type and number of components in function (not all the components were available yet, on account of the time needed to develop the software). It would probably take up to a year before Moddy was ready which would cost between eight and ten million lire, but unfortunately Sisius became bankrupt before the "Modulus" project could be completed, although a few Moddy robots were later sold in Norway by Arngren Electronics A/S.
