  • A Tiny Robot That Notices You

    Mirumi turns, listens, and meets your gaze - small gestures that spark joy for you and people around you.
    Mirumi is a small charm robot designed to spark tiny moments of joy. It senses its surroundings and turns to take a peek, sometimes meeting your eyes before shyly looking away. Attach it to your bag, wrist, or a pole and it clings tightly with flexible TPU arms that grip even thin straps. Pat its head and it responds with adorable motions chosen by a special algorithm, so reactions always feel fresh. It turns toward voices and makes spontaneous movements on its own. Soft Japanese materials and a plush body invite touch, while a rechargeable battery keeps the cuteness going with playful low-power cues. Back Mirumi on Kickstarter.

    What is Kickstarter?
