RoBe:Do Robot Takes Free Popcorn Orders to Lazy Twitters

I don’t know about you, but me, when I was a kid, I was always dreaming of having my own robot to play with it and stuff like that. Finally I’ve found a relatively cheap way to have it.

The guys from RoBe:Do have designed a software-ready robot that only needs a netbook ( e.g. eeePC ) to control it. The most exciting part is that you can control your robot through Twitter and it only requires a 12V rechargeable battery. Also, the robots feature an autofocus webcam, sonar system and they use the attached netbook as a brain.

The robots come in two flavours, the Coppa ( $1,649 ) and Silvio ( $1,449 ). Watch the following video to see how a robot is controlled via Twitter from an iPhone and it brings popcorn to it’s master.
