I have no idea what on earth makes a company, in this case Japan-based Cube Works, produce a mini robot that wears diapers but it actually exists. And the so-called Cam Baby has some amazing skills.

It walks when you clap your hands. Its eyes flash. It moves its head. It walks. It makes sounds. It starts crying when it stumbles and falls down. And it’s pretty ugly, too (please watch the video after the break to get the full picture).

The mini robot is 93mm tall and Japan-only, which is fortunate in this particular case. If you live outside Nippon and REALLY want the robot, however, you can order it here for $28.07 plus shipping. The Cam Baby is available wearing green, white or blue diapers/pacifiers.
