We all know that Hello Kitty is synonymous with being cute, and now, they have teamed up with iRobot to bring us the first fully functioning Hello Kitty robot. The limited edition Hello Kitty robots are few in number and only 500 of these are going to hit the markets. This could also mean that the iRobot’s lesser-known Roomba Vac may sell more, due to the non-availability of the former.
Price and availability: The Hello Kitty robots are going to be a limited edition batch with only 500 entering the market. Each robot would cost $810 and may get sold out quickly due to the scarcity of the product.
Watch this: Hello Kitty robots may help robotics to become more popular among the masses as until now, robots have been something that is not so friendly and “cute.” With the visually appealing feline form of the robots, and the brand name of Hello Kitty, the robots could become a collector’s piece.
