Alive Elvis
posted by Steven Shaw at 2:50 pm
From the same people behind the Robosapien, the Alive Elvis® is a singing and talking bust of The King, dressed in a ’68 Comeback Special-era leather jacket. The makers say they’ve used motion capture to replicate facial movements as he operates in the following modes:
Alive mode: Elvis moves, responding to sound and music, tracks movements, and makes Elvis remarks.
Sing through mode: Elvis karaoke. Sing along with the tracks by plugging in a compatible microphone (not included).
Song mode: Elvis’ mouth lip-syncs to songs on the Song and Monologue cartridges.
Monologue mode: Elvis spins a few yarns, telling anecdotes from his life.
Eight songs are on the included cartridge, including “That’s All Right”, “Hound Dog” and “Heartbreak Hotel”. More info at the Wowweestore website. What else can we say… apart from “Thangyoovrymushhh”.
