Breakfast at Twendy’s

From the wacky world of Japanese robot science, the latest prototype to hit the news is named Twendy One, and has been designed to help solve the eternal problem of how to make breakfast when you don’t want to do it yourself.
Twendy has soft fingers that can pick up bread without squashing it, and is designed to help an ageing population around the house. Unfortunately, he has come along a little too late for some of Backbytes’ ageing population, because his inventors don’t think
he will be available to buy until 2015.
As we’re developing a thread on rubbish ways we lead the world, perhaps Twendy could be merged with that great British contribution to the robotic breakfast, the teasmade, in an international joint venture.
