This is called a KeepOn and it was in the music video for Spoon - Don’t You Ever. When they premiered it, they did it to Spoon - I Turn My Camera On which went viral back in the day.
They made a commercial version of it called MyKeepOn which I have. I’m currently working on getting it hooked up through an arduino to be able to program custom movements.

Thanks! I knew I remembered it from somewhere!
That video is adorable, a wonderful act of (robotic) puppeteering.

Hey, I’ve got a KeepOn too! I rescued it from a thrift store a few years ago and was amazed it still worked when I got it home and put some batteries in it.

I knew I’d seen that robot before. Geesh, I’ve been on BoingBoing way too long.

I think Herb Hoover’s Keepon Peepon (a dancing peep) is a better dancer:

Don’t get taken in people! Can’t you see this is just yet another unrealistic beauty standard us mere mortals will never be able to live up to?
