Turn Your Smartphone Into a Robot
Romo smartens up your already intelligent smartphone by turning it into a robot.
Two robot enthusiasts, Peter Seid and Phu Nguyen, have found a way to smarten up your already intelligent smartphone by turning it into a robot. The Romo robotics platform uses your phone, its apps and their software to perform robotic tasks, like bringing you a drink.
According to its designers the Romo is able to 'learn, grow, and change' because users can add new hardware modules. Other Romo functions include turning your smartphone into a 'spy robot', play a 'mixed-reality version' of Mario Kart and execute commands through a drag and drop programming module.
The designers behind the Romo have posted the project on crowd funding site Kickstarter, where it has received over $85,000 in seed capital.
