Auto Mee S mini robot cleans your tablet so you don't have to
Back in 1986, the company sold a cleaning robot called the SO-G, or Dustbot (not to be confused with this Italian robot), that would push a little broom around and actually vacuumed to clean up your floors. It was too small and slow to really clean a room, but it made up for that with its cute appearance.
Likewise, Takara Tomy claims the Auto Mee S, measuring just 2.75 inches (7 cm) in diameter, will clean a smartphone in about four minutes or a tablet in eight minutes ... which would only take a couple of seconds if done by hand.
Set to hit Japanese stores in late March, the Auto Mee S comes in white, pink, orange, and blue and will cost ¥1,575 (US$16.85). It runs on a single AA battery (not included).
