The Bandai Aqua Dance Toy

This little toy actually came out into the Japanese markets last year, 2008. But the product has been so popular that it will be flying to the US markets pretty soon. Bandai’s creation, the Aqua Dance Toy, is a fun little fountain that uses nano technology in order to produce its effects.

As to how the toy actually works: a drop of water rolls around the surface of the Aqua Dance Toy and follows a continuous flow with the help of nano technology and some logic of physics. But setting aside all the technical explanations, the toy basically presents itself as a mini-fountain where the water in the device will be on the plastic surface of the gadget.

While this isn’t really the kind of technology we would deem as practical as cell phones or Mp3 players, this toy can be a really entertaining pastime for any child or adult who has this. Indeed Japan is known for being able to come up with toys as intriguing and appealing as cell phones and other gadgets.
