Sony Ericsson today unveiled the ROB-1, a Bluetooth-controlled robot that can move around freely and take pictures.
Steered wirelessly by the joystick or keypad on a mobile phone or a touch screen (as with the P900 and P910), users can see on the phone screen exactly what ROB-1 is looking at. Consumers can then capture these images using their phone just as they would a normal photo.
