Probably the oldest and best known robot dog in the world, Sony’s Aibo returns this year as the new ERS 1000 model, which the company says will be more like a real dog then ever before. With its fish eye lens cameras, Wi-fi connectivity, and location and mapping software, the robot will learn from its owner, develop its own personality and grow together with its owner as a partner. As it interacts with people over time, Aibo’s behaviour slowly changes and adapts in response to its unique environment. The robot can move along at a total of 22 axes to resemble smooth and natural movements of a dog, with its body language expressed through a combination of voices and eye, ear and tail movements.
