Saltbot And Pepperbot

Alright, so this is not the type of thing that we normally write about around here, and I wouldn’t have, if these were just salt and pepper shakers shaped like robots. But, there’s more! You wind ‘em up, and they walk! No more knocking over glasses trying to pass the seasonings; just point these little guys in the right direction and send them on their way.

Here is what needs to happen in version 2:

-Voice recognition
-Obstacle and edge avoidance
-Some kind of gun (or if you want to be lame and boring, dispenser) to automatically add salt and pepper to a dish that you indicat.

Am I asking too much? Yes, I am, and if my version ever comes to fruition, it’s gonna cost way more than the $33 that these guys will run you. Available soon from SuckUK.

Would you be considering exchanging hyperlinks?
