Sure Alexa is cool and all but it can’t exactly keep you company during your hopefully long and possibly lonely life. The Gatebox is the PA device that lets an animated diva live right along side you.

Even if you’re not so into the whole anime girl scene, this a pretty cool bit of technology. It’s a connected hologram that can respond to you. You’ve seen the idea for it in movies and video games, really it was only a matter of time before it came to a home near you. Possibly your home. The sensors and microphones allow you to interact with the hologram who can wave and smile back at you.

It is a connected device so it can notify you of the weather, time, information on your other smart devices, etc. Really, this is probably what Alexa wishes it was. If you need this in your life, then it will run you ¥150.000.
