Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber was on hand at CES 2012 to unveil a dancing robot developed by Vietnamese electronics company TOSY Robotics. The Transformer-inspired robot, dubbed the mRobo Ultra Bass, is essentially a portable speaker that sprouts limbs and a head before it starts dancing to the beat.
As for the robot itself, well it’s more of a novelty speaker system that can dance to the music you upload to it. The mRobo can store 2GB worth of music or roughly 500 songs. However, all the dance moves are pre-programmed and you have to use a remote to tell it what to do. It weighs about 3.3 pounds, measure 8-inches tall in its speaker form, but reaches about a foot tall after it transforms. It’s expected to ship this fall for $199.
