Unyubot


Tokyo Toy show the demonstration of a new pet robot called U.bo from Phison Electronics. This I must say, is no more useful than having an extra dog to take care of. I mean, it really doesn’t do anything worthwhile except for entertaining you with its weirdly annoying mannerisms. U.bo is actually an alien spore that has its residence in 6-legged space craft. It can walk in all directions, make sounds, which I hope are not annoying and its 11 x 11 LED screen displays array of emoticons. In addition to this, you also need to feed it from time to time, as if feeding yourself was not enough, I mean it is one extra task to be completed in the day. To feed it you have to tilt a magnetic cookie accessory towards its mouth and as a result it will poop, pee, fart, and burp. It has a funny way of pooping, it will show the poop icon and the user will have to shake it to clean it up.
