Gizmodo's Louis Ramirez reports on the arrival of the first robot to be "specifically designed for the voyeur inside us all."
Bandai Robot Laboratory's NetTansor is controlled via Wi-Fi, and carries a webcam mounted up front, along with three sensors to keep it from walking into things.
"You can communicate with the bot via e-mail (no word on whether he'll write back) and he's got enough juice in him to give you two and a half hours of voyeuristic fun," Ramirez writes. "That's our kinda robot."
At Gizmodo, slowreader responds, "Now i can put this in my fridge and catch my roomate stealing my food!"
The NetTansor brochure (PDF file) is worth checking out -- as underrun puts it, "The pdf is neat too if you like to imagine what it's capable of (attacking children and household pets). Seems to be a music delivery robot as well..."
