Your mobile phone already knows where it is, how you're holding it, and what’s around it. What if you could use it to control your own inventions? ServoDroid is a tiny board that allows you to control motors and LEDs directly from your phone. With ServoDroid you can build Robots, camera mounts, Light activated lamps, and basically anything that contains a servo or LEDs.

ServoDroid is a handy tool for all makers. It requires no setup, just plug it into your phone's audio jack and you can start controlling robots. Featuring a drag and drop programming language it helps promote STEM education, while making it easier for makers to prototype their ideas.

Early bird ServoDroid boards are available on IndieGogo: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/servodroid-control-anything-with-your-phone
