Working on your PC can sometimes be a lonely experience.

Well not anymore, because now you can get yourself a new companion in the form of Tengu!

Tengu is a USB-powered character produced by Solid Alliance of Japan. It lights up and lip-syncs to music, or your voice, or whatever noise happens to be around at the time. Tengu has different facial expressions that you can match to different music. When there’s no sound he’ll simply fall asleep, as soon as he detects some noise he’ll wake up again. Tengu is a fun little character who guarantees to raise a smile as he mimes along to your favourite songs.

Tengu is a stand-alone device that does not require any additional software on the host computer. To change Tengu’s facial expressions you just need to blow on his face for a second (his face will change automatically if he hears a lot of loud music). Tengu responds to sound level and with the right music he magically synchs with the singer.

Some Tengu owners have reported problems with connecting Tengu to the USB port on an Apple keyboard.

This problem can be solved by connecting Tengu directly to the USB port on the computer.
