Those Zany Japanese Peeps...

Written by Mir :: :: ::

Just saw this via Boing Boing, these nifty little Japanese automatons are really cool.

From Boing Boing:

These Japanese language website sells some incredible-looking science projects. The only English words on the site are "Sophisticated Science Kit Series for Adults." The Karakuri puppets they sell are scale reproductions of actual historical Japanese automatons, and the videos are stunning.

Here's a cool video of one. You can actually buy one for about $100 USD.
