Mr. Personality: WoWee humorous personal robot
Posted on: January 05, 2008
[CES 2008] I don’t like the form factor of this fun companion-robot and I don’t know yet if it has a real sense of humor, but this latest creation from WoWee is interesting. Mr. Personality displays his personality on a LCD screen with animated and synchronized facial features. In addition he can tell jokes, reads the daily fortune and answers questions about the users’ future. New personalities can be downloaded from the Internet and transferred via USB or using a SD card. I am dying to see if this gadget is as humorous as the spec sheet claims it is!
