Clocky is your interactive wake-up call

No more rolling over and hitting the snooze button. Clocky the robot alarm clock doesn't just go off, it literally goes off - rolling off your night stand onto the floor while making all sorts of noises that don't sound nice in the morning.

The little robot has the traditional clock design with a digital clock screen that looks like a mouth and two buttons above it that resemble eyes. But then it starts looking a bit different, with two giant wheels on the side of its head that enable it to roll around at the desired time.

You can set Clocky to go off at a desired time, and it will start beeping. After a set number of allowable "snooze" minutes that you decide, Clocky will make the leap from your night table to the floor, rolling back and forth every few feet for 30 seconds. If you've had enough, you can always disable its wheels so it performs like a conventional alarm clock.

Clocky is available for about $50, with colors including almond white, aqua, mint, and mustard.
