Romotive

Have a browse around the site for Romo, a superbly clever robot derived from a smartphone, an app and some durable tread. The intro video gives you an idea of what he does but, more importantly, it should be noted that this is a semi-automated robot pal. Even if you're not sold on his capabilities in the current state you have to admit there's some very appealing sci-fi robo-buddy potential here... at least for kids. Want one? Make him exist.
