"Wanna play Pokemon Go, but not really? For fifty bones, we'll do it for you"

This seems like a very desperate move by Niantic, other games with a similar concept have not been successful, so they don't want to let this one die, but since people are no longer interested in constantly keeping their attention in the game while walking this seems like a compromise so they can still "play" the game without paying it any attention.
The problem I see is that people still want to use their phones for other things, so if the gadget still requires the game to be active in the screen then that is still not going to work for them.

Nothing desperate, just business. This is just an updated version and these devices have been available since 2016 soon after the game was released. Apparently quite popular.

When the best you can do for your game is to put out something that can let people play less that can be validly called desperate. It may help keeping peopple on the app for more time when they are already on the brink of changing to other forms of entertaiment, but the simple fact that the device is meant for the game to play itself means people will begin to notice why they don't want to do it themselves anymore.
