Ricoh lets Hello Kitty project herself
Hello Kitty is everywhere these days, so it's inevitable she'll appear on gadgets. But perhaps one of the more unusual items to get a Hello Kitty makeover is Ricoh's home-theater projector, which will be released on Nov. 1, the famous feline's birthday.
Although Hello Kitty's face and iconic red ribbon make up the rectangular body of the projector, this is definitely not a toy. It produces high-resolution projections, making your photos or movies particularly clear and vivid — and it costs ¥138,240. It's also compact in size, has a mobile high-definition link (MHL) terminal that can be used with a smartphone or tablet and it comes with a collection of other Hello Kitty-themed covers.
