Terrifying shoulder-mounted telepresence mecha-muppet whispers arcane commands.

TEROOS

You carry TEROOS around on your shoulder but someone else controls it, using its built-in camera, microphone, and speaker to look around and communicate with the wearer. Communications and commands are relayed via a smartphone, which is passed to TEROOS via Bluetooth. Skype handles the audio/video exchange between TEROOS and its remote operator.

Exhibit A:

Exhibit B:

Previously, previously.

   This vaguely reminds me of something I saw on MTV in the mid eighties...Can't for the life of remember what song or artist it was, though. Any ideas?

   One of our developers just recently moved to Europe. I wonder if I can get the boss to spring for this as a telepresence solution.

   Something about that reminds me of an enemy from Megaman. I think it's the eyes.
