There’s just something beautifully poetic (from a geeky perspective anyhow) about an android being controlled by Android and that’s exactly what’s occurred thanks to an Android OS app having been developed that will offer control of the Plen robot via your Android powered smartphone.

The Android App, which can be seen controlling a Plen robot in the video below, communicated via Bluetooth and can control Plen’s every move allowing you to make him (it is a him, isn’t it?) walk, dance, shuffle and generally lark about to your heart’s content.
Of course, to experience the joy of controlling this particular robot via your Android smartphone you’re going to have to splash the cash to the tune of around a considerable $3,000 and, if you’re already thinking you are up for laying out such a sum you can head over to AudioCubes who’ll happily ship a Plen to you. You’ll need to act quickly though, as only 50 Plen robots are initially being offered.
