Sony uses Artificial Intelligence to bring Aibo Robot dog back to life

The world’s most loved Robotic pup makes a comeback. Sony brought Robotics into the home with Aibo (ERS-110). The technology employed to help Aibo Become more than just a toy for kids was Revolutionary. The robotic pup was capable of moving autonomously, reacting to stimuli and more. Aibo was almost the real puppy kids wanted. Aibo’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) was able to learn with experience from speech recognition to gauging his environment for obstacles. He was quite a hit in Affluent households that snapped up the limited run at US $2,000 a piece.

                                               After 11 years Aibo is back and better than ever. With LTE support and wireless cloud storage, the tech dog is now cuter, smarter, more agile a and far more responsive than his older siblings. The image and data he records can easily be accessed via his corresponding Smartphone app. Aibo is priced at $1,740 and available in japan for now. It just like a real pet. Aibo’s evolution is remarkable and his latest avatar is his best yet. It’s exciting to see just how realistic he shall be in his next iteration. The ERS-7 was quite a treat for the family, minus the mess, loss of property and the need to be taken outside for walks. Sony launched a cuter –looking version called Latte aka ERS-311, followed by 312 in black a year after. Aibo never made his debut on a global scale, and the technology was phased out due to a lack of significant profits.
