Late last year, DailyTech reported on the Hello Kitty iRobot Roomba 500 that was on sale in Japan. Japan is one of the few countries you would find a product like this as the merchandising tends to be extreme. Now there is a new floor cleaning product called the Fukitorimushi that may or may not top a spinning frisbee with a Hello Kitty logo plastered on it. When translated, Fukitorimushi means “Wipe Up Bug” in Japanese and that is exactly what this robot does.    (source: dailytech.com)
