9f John - Pet Robot

Sony created the first pet robot called AIBO in 1999 in Japan. AIBO was designed to be a pet rather than a working robot. It resembled a puppy and moved around on four legs, responding to whistles and putting its paw out like a real dog. AIBO was programmed with over 50 types of dog and cat behaviors to make it act and respond to stimuli like a pet.

(Pet Robot)
Who??
 Sony (company) made the first pet
robot
What??
 They made AIBO (pet robot)
When??
 The sony company made On June 1,
1999
Where??
 Sony company is from Japan so this
pet robot is from Japan.
Why??
 Why?? I don’t know why.
 AIBO is not for work, it is a robot
designed to be a pet.
How??
 AIBO is 27.4 centimeters long (approximately 11 inches) and weighs
approximately 1.6 kilograms (3.5 pounds). It is exactly like a little puppy-it
has eyes, ears, and a tail and walks on four legs. It primarily moves around
on its own, although it can also be operated by remote control.
AIBO not only looks like a puppy, it also walks on four legs by itself, plays
with a ball, responds to a whistle, gets mad when it is hit on the head,
barks, and puts out its paw when a person sticks out a hand.
This is possible thanks to the high-speed, workstation-class computer built
into its body, which has been programmed to remember over 50 different
types of behavior based on studies of dog and cat behavior.
AIBO behaves in accordance with the "instincts" programmed into its
software, expresses "emotions" according to the degree of satisfaction of
these instincts and in response to external stimuli picked up through its
camera and microphone, and "learns" through the accumulation of these
experiences. It "grows up" just like an ordinary puppy.
How much??
 Selling the robots via the Internet
only, Sony sold 5,000 units
worldwide, and they were so popular
that the 3,000 earmarked for Japan
sold out in just 20 minutes.
(I don’t know how much.)
 Also, it’s being sold more than 5
hundred millon.
