KOBOT: Japanese Company Shows Transformable, Smartphone-Controlled E-Cars (Video)
Japan-based Kowa Tmsuk may just be ten months old and just have five employees (it's a joint venture between two larger companies), but it seems the company is set to build cool things. Their electric vehicle concept, dubbed KOBOT, looks very promising - especially for a first product.The KOBOT is essentially a mix between a robot and an electric mini car that can make itself smaller than it already is with the push of a button (a feature that obviously comes in handy when it's time to park the vehicle, for example). What's cool is that the cars can be connected to smartphones: they actually start folding after owners push the button on their handsets.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/5PjGpRMAZi0/
