Hello Kitty everywhere, even in gadget. ricoh cooperates with Sanrio and releases the Hello Kitty projector on November 1 that is her birthday. A face of Hello Kitty is printed on a body, and of course there is the red ribbon characterizing her. However, this is not a toy. Though this is a compact body, this have high-resolution video projection function corresponding to the full high-definition, so can project dynamic photos or vivid movie colorfully.
