Yukai Engineering, the company that brought you thatheadless cat robot– sorry, “tailed cushion that heals your heart” – has come through strong again atCES 2022. The newest addition to its range, and walking a similar line between appealing and just weird, is a cuddly toy that nibbles your fingers. It’s called theAmagami Ham Ham.
The concept is based on the assumption that we all harbour a secret desire to have our fingers nibbled, but we can’t really enjoy the ‘nibbling’ stage with babies or puppies, for instance, because we have to teach said infants that biting is bad, before their confidence and teeth grow enough to do some real damage to whatever they decide to munch on. The finer wording might have been a victim of translation issues, but I’m pretty confident that’s the gist.
Not convinced youdohave a secret desire for some covert finger-nibbling? Take a look at the GIF below and tell me you don’t even want to give it a try.
The idea is that it’s soothing and stress-relieving. Hey,weighted blanketssounded odd when they first hit the mainstream, too, so perhaps you shouldn’t judge it until you’ve tried it.
