Yuta Sugiura and his co-mate at the Graduate School of Media Design, Keio University have developed a new robot called Walky. It is controlled using iPhone rather than using some keyboard or traditional controller. Walking, turning, jumping, kicking, and other actions can be performed by the simple finger gestures on the iPhone’s touch screen.

“Walky follows in the finger-steps of their laundry-folding robot and UI system called Foldy.”

Check it out after the break.
