Tengu is a cool little
USB gadget that you
connect to the USB
slot in your computer
or laptop and he instantly
becomes a companion
who sits there with
you. Tengu reacts
to sounds and will
mime along to songs
if you have music
playing on your computer.
You can even chat
away to him if you
want (make sure no
one is watching, you
don't want them to
get worried about
your sanity...)
Tengu
does not need any
additional software
for it to work, simply
plug in and you are
away. When Tengu hears
no sound for a while
it will fall asleep,
to wake Tengu up all
you need to do is
blow on his face.
As Tengu has a number
of different faces,
if you blow on the
mic his face expression
will change.
Now we are not going
to try and pretend
that Tengu doesn't
anything that is actually
going to do anything
that is that useful
for you other than
make you smile (which
is probably one of
the best reasons to
get him). Sitting
at a computer for
long periods alone
can get a bit boring
so if Tengu gives
you that bit of company
then that's all good
isn't it (just perhaps
don't tell all your
friends you have a
USB electronic mate
or they might think
you have lost the
plot).
A similar but hugely
more functional desktop
companion is the Nabaztag
tag.
