Walking iPhone Robot gives your gadget some dubious mobility
DVICE Atom Feed —
An iPhone that can plug into a special laptop is pretty sweet, but how about one that could walk around on its own? (Thankfully it can't chase you around — yet.) Kazu Terasaki, a Silicon Valley-base software engineer, was too fed up with missing calls from Bill Gates and Steve Jobs and decided to take matters into his own hands. In the past, he created a system called PuchiRobo, a system that could turn anything from a beer can to a tissue box into a bipedal 'bot. Now, he's used it to give his iPhone legs.
Right now the whole setup is a little rudimentary. Kazu's PuchiRobo legs need to a computer to ...
Walking iPhone Robot Gimpy, Suicidal [IPhone]
Gizmodo —
I'm going to give credit to Kazu Terasaki for designing a pair of robot legs for his iPhone. After all, creating a platform that will bring gadgets to you is a lazy, yet noble endeavor. Unfortunately, a couple of kinks have to be worked out before this can be a viable product. First of all, it still requires a laptop to coordinate the movements. Second, it is very gimpy (watch in horror as it stands up the edge of a table then hurls itself off). At any rate, his plan is to develop autonomous robot legs that can be attached to any device—which sounds good. He has a little work to ...

Do We Really Need an iPhone Robot?
Mobilewhack.com —
So did you watch the video above? You’ll find one more after the break. Question is, do we really need an iPhone Robot ? Are we that lazy that we don’t want to move around the hose to get the iPhone? Is the iPhone going to develop into something nastier over time and then go back in time looking for say, Sarah Connor ? So many questions left unanswered and so little time… via Dailymobile Tags: Apple , Apple , iPhone , Mobile News , Other Brands , robot

Robot iPhone

Así que aquí tenéis un vídeo elaborado por un japonés con tiempo libre y cierto fanatismo por su iPhone, recientemente estrenado por el operador Softbank en ese país. Parece que este sujeto perdía muchas llamadas al no tener el móvil consigo cuando iba al baño, hasta que ideó una forma. Si Mahoma no va a la montaña, la montaña va a Mahoma. Aquí os lo ...
