TEROOS lets a distant friend accompany you and see/hear through the robot’s camera and mic. A mini directional speaker allows the robot to whisper in your ear, which is even more weird. [Via JWZ]

I wonder if it would it still be creepy if they put a parrot costume on it and it made random squawking sounds.
