Spykee Cell Bluetooth Robot: An iPhone Humper

Here’s another Spykee robot giving an iPhone the business from behind. The Spykee Cell is another build-it-yourself robot from Meccano. It’s remote controlled using Bluetooth from a cellphone and can move and snap pictures, then transmit them back to your cellphone for storage. The loudspeaker module gives it the capability of becoming a hands-free set, if you want to speak and hear through the robot.

WowWee Rovio Robot with GPS & Wi-Fi

WowWee introduced Rovio, a new robot with GPS technology from Evolution Robotics. Rovio has a Wi-Fi-enabled Web-cam that allows you to patrol your home while you’re away, via an Internet-enabled PC, console or mobile phone. You can drive the robot with shortcut “go-to” commands. For instance, “go to the dining room”. It also has what they call a “patrol mode” where it automatically sends you pictures of locations you want to check.

It also can also guide itself back on course if, say your kids pick it up and move it and it can navigate to its charging station from anywhere in the home, and dock with pinpoint accuracy.
