MyKeepon

You may have seen dancing sunflowers, coke cans, and various other grooving gadgets, but nothing we've seen struts its stuff as funkily as the new MyKeepOn! Already an internet sensation the KeepOn has amassed over 4 million views as it shakes a tail feather to various songs. The professional versions of these adorable little yellow chaps cost around $30,000 and are used to experiment in the realms of social robot design and autism research. But now KeepOn is set to invade homes all over the world as a new toy version has been unveiled on an ususpecting public in the form of MyKeepOn.

The research KeepOn has been named one of the "Top 10 robots of all time", and although MyKeepOn won't have the same range of interactivity and functionality, the clever engineers behind the home version have kept the most engaging interactive traits at a tiny fraction of the cost. MyKeepOn will still react to touch, and retains its amazing ability to listen to music, detect the beat, and dance in perfect rhythm, which for anyone who has been to family social event will know, is more than most relatives can manage!

MyKeepon stays true to its roots and like any good family unit, it will be sending money home to its dear old folks because a percentage from the sale of every MyKeepon will go towards subsidising and donating research grade Keepons to therapists and researchers so they can continue their good work. The Keepon is instantly endearing, and has an incredibly eclectic taste in music, happily busting a move to whatever you happen to be listening to from The Beatles, all the way to the heaviest of metal, and anything else inbetween. The one thing that we must say is that telling you about MyKeepon doesn't do it justice, you need to see it in action, so we'll say no more and let you do just that.
