Autobot Ukulele: Musicbots in disguise

Add as a preferred source on Google

Remember that tribute band you were going to form in college all dressed up as Transformers? Sure you don’t, but while we will forgive your selective memory, we couldn’t help bring to your attention the amazingly awesome and awesomely geeky Transformer themed Ukulele.

The Autobot Ukulele is handcrafted by Ashevill, NC’s Celentano Woodworks and is comprised of Ipe and Maple hardwoods. The wonderfully nerdy instrument costs $550, is custom made, and can be made to fit any size or shape. Music lovers and Transformers fanatics will surely love to hold one of these unique ukes in their hands and strum away, melting the face of any Decepticon foolish enough to get in range of its dulcet tones.

If you’re looking to snag one this holiday season, think again, unfortunately they are on back order, but you can still head over to Etsy and put your name on the waiting list.

Mori might be the cutest AI companion robot yet, and it reacts to you like a pet
The Pokémon-like companion can blink, dance, act shy, and respond to what is happening around it.
OKA Mori The Nature Companion AI Home Robot

With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.

Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
