There are some of us who don’t want to deal with all the inconveniences of a real dog and would rather pay nearly $2,900 for Sony’s robotic alternative, Aibo. It’s not that weird to want a hassle-free robotic companion to fill that void in your life. But, it’s definitely at least a little weird to want to carry around your Aibo strapped to your chest.
In any case, Sony has released an accessory that does just that, a sling that you can tuck your adorable Aibo into. Sony approached Lucky Industries, the longest-established baby strap manufacturer in Japan, to work together on this questionable product. It’s definitely a bizarre request because I’m wondering if this is something that Aibo owners actually wanted. But, it’s still Sony — you know, weird Sony who made these donut-shaped LinkBuds — so I can’t even fault Lucky Industries for this wacky collab.
