Pass the tissue? Drive it here instead


Hang on. You're coughing and sneezing your lungs out, and you want ME to come inside Ground Zero to pass you a tissue? No thanks. Four little letters and numbers: H1N1.

Fortunately, we have Rakuten's Running Tissue Box to the rescue. Using a standard remote control chassis, you put a tissue box on top and drive the absorbent paper to its destination. Think of it as a bomb disposal robot that enter dangerous contaminated territory where no man should tread. The only thing which makes us scratch our heads is how long it took for someone to bring this idea to fruition. The Running Tissue Box costs around US$25 and is available from online stores such as Geek Stuff 4 U.
