Puppy look, I have a new head

“Puppy look, I have a new head.”
“I would like also to get a new head. Where did you find your new head?”
“I got it from robot head store. Just go there and get a new head for you too.”

Some of Nokia’s engineers have been busy demonstrating the use of the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet, attaching it to a robot model kit and creating the “Nokia Robot Puppy.”

The robot was built with off the shelf robot kits, runs on Linux, and of course, his head is a Nokia 770. The idea is to use Robot Puppy as an example of what can be done with the 770 tablet. Learn more about the project on maemo.org.

Since then, Robot Puppy’s adventures have since been uploaded to YouTube and shared with robot and Nokia enthusiasts around the world.

The engineers also need help coming up with a name for the puppy, so tell us your suggestions!
