Walking iPhone Robot

There is no limitation to what people are capable of and when those people are the one with small eyes (Japanese hehee) then there is nothing such as impossible. Just take a look at this example. I mean who would have thought what more an iPhone would need. Not me?? I always thought it was a complete phone with all the features anyone would want in a mobile phone but for Kazu Terasaki it was not just enough. He wanted his iPhone to walk and he did so too.

All who don’t know Kazu Terasaki, he is a Japanese software engineer working in the Silicon Valley area. He was involved in a product called PuchiRobo which is another robot kit that enables you to turn anything from a beer can to a tissue box into a walking robot and he has used the same technology to turn an iPhone into a walking robot. The robot is not complete though and need a PC to move but he’s thinking to come up with a chip for that too to make it automatic. I watched the video and the iPhone robot also had cute moving eye balls which again he had created for iPhone.
