The shape looks similar to a bug with two big eyes at the front. The two big eyes enable you to have a 2-way video call with your Nokia phone, while the wheels allow you to move Jeppe around like a R/C toy using your Nokia phone as the controller.

There is more feature such as Jeppe can be remotely controlled from the internet and Jeppe also can moves independently with the help of internal Digital Compass and sound sensor.
