This has gotta be one of the creepier robotic animals I’ve seen from Japan in some time (or at least this week.) This frightening little guy sits on your dashboard and uses GPS technology to point you in the direction of your destination.

The Navirobo GPS teddy bear from iXs lifts his animatronic paw to show you which direction to go. If you miss a turn, he’ll point it out (I wonder if it laughs at you too?) When you get to your destination, he’ll do a little dance, at which point you can take it, throw it out the window and run it over with your car several times.
