A Dancing Music Player???
Monday, August 31st, 2009
There is a new music gadget out there. Sony has unveiled The Rolly, a music player. But, there's something else... It's a robot, and it can dance!
The Rolly is made of a central cylinder with a thick rubber ring and a LED ring on each end. Attached to each end is a rounded cone. The cones each end with a dome.

You may look a little ridiculous, but in the case of this gadget, looking funny may be cool. If you have ever seen someone wearing a visor that makes them look like she is a Star Trek wannabe, then she simply may be watching a movie. Or perhaps she is wearing a visor and is on her way to a Star Trek show, but that probably is not the case.
So, how could she be watching a movie from her visor? Well, it turns out that this person that you are seeing is actually watching a movie on a 52" screen...
