Bobwi - Cheap, easy to print, walking and dancing robot. (with BT)Here you have a robot that a designed inspired by Bob and Zowi with bluetooth functionality to be controlled from an Android phone and use a Monteino.

Here you have some videos:
The source code (3d parts and arduino code) to make Bobwi dance, or to be controlled from Android.

Regarding the code, I just create the code to make the bluetooth module compatible with the Android app, and adapted the original code to be compatible with the pinout of the monteino, is still a Work in Progress..
This absolutely made my day! Thanks for posting.

Two questions, Joe:
1. Can you do that with a coin cell battery?
2. Can you do that? ;D I'm pretty sure Felix can. Of course he's younger than... well, no comment.
Tom
Haha! This is so brilliant :)

Tom - I'm pretty sure I can't ;)
Hi,
Just an update, the orginal Zowi, have a 5 x 6 px LED matrix, and I would like to give this feature to Bobwi.

I just adapted the original code that work with 74HC595 to a I2C mini 0,8'' white led matrix 8x8 from adafruit.

Everything run fine, with the "test script".. but when I tried to modify the library :( it doesn't work...
I doesn't have experience with libraries, so sure that I missing something...
I'll keep you updated.
