For those of you old enough to remember the misadventures of Maxwell Smart in the 1960s television series Get Smart, you will probably remember the shoe phone.

Back then shoe phones were just a flight of fancy, as were cellphones for that matter.

But now decades later, the infamous shoe phone appears to have become a reality.

An enterprising scientist at Flinders' University in Adelaide as developed a shoe phone that actually works.

Inventor Paul Gardner-Stephen spoke to Campbell Live about his creation.
