Robotic Sony Rolly Conducts Orchestra of Robotic Sony Aibo Dogs

by Evan Shamoon on February 26, 2009 at 07:10 AM


If you'd like a preview of the impending robot uprising, take a look through clenched fists at this. Apparently, 37 Aibo owners in Japan got together with their pups to perform a robotic dog concert, conducted by a Sony Rolly. The former was discontinued by Sony several years back, and Rolly, Sony's MP3 player on wheels, is in many ways its spiritual successor (read: equally awesome and equally useless).

The Aibos range from first-generation models to the last ones ever to come off of Sony's assembly lines. We are experiencing total cute overload from electronic dogs right now and, quite frankly, it is freaking us out. [From: DVICE]
