There’s an App For That

If you’re not comfortable barking commands at a robot (you should probably get used to that real soon) Robosen’s Grimlock can also be connected to a dedicated iOS or Android app on a mobile device over Bluetooth. The app replicates all of the voice commands as buttons you can simply tap, and is actually an easier way to make the robot walk around as it provides an on-screen joystick controller. The app also allows for more complex interactions with the robot, including the ability to program custom animations or daisy-chain several pre-animated sequences together using a simple building block interface.
