Sony unveils new twisting music player
by RobotGod.
Sony on Monday unveiled a new robotic music player shaped like an egg with flapping wings that can twist to its tunes. It is a digital music player that plays music through built-in speakers and has color lights that flash as it "dances".
Yahoo reports that the "Rolly" is a digital music player that plays music through built-in speakers and it also has colour lights that flash as it "dances".
Now that is cool. It gets cooler. Users can set the movements so they go along with the music they download from their PC's and Bluetooth devices. It will go on sale in Japan on September 29, and has one gigabyte of memory to store your favorite tunes.
Sony withdrew from robot technology development due to its financial difficulties, so they say this is an audio product first and foremost.
"The motion control and sensor technologies (developed in earlier robot projects) are applied to Rolly, but this is an audio product," said Sony spokeswoman Saori Takahashi.
Now you can listen top music they way God intended, with a robot dancing!
