ROBO dances to the beat of its own drum


TOKYO: A Vietnamese robotics manufacturer made a robot called mROBO that dance to the beat of its own drum.
The mROBO comes with 2 GB of memory, which will allow internal storage of about 500 songs. The audio amplifier and speaker are quality units, which provide solid bass down to a claimed 40 Hz. mROBO weighs 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg), and runs off batteries. The unit measures 4.3 (D) x 6.3 (W) x 7.9 (H) inches (10 x 16 x 20 cm), so is easily portable. It seems a quality, but rather pedestrian, portable speaker.
mROBO's form is clearly male, and likely intended to suggest Michael Jackson.
Not only does the mRobo play its own music, but you can also stream music into it via Bluetooth. Once the music begins you can prompt the speaker to begin its transformation into a surprisingly convincing humanoid robot with a number of entertaining dance moves.
