Just Like Fido
According to Sony, the bot is just like a pet dog. It can learn tricks, reacts to words and being petted and plays with toys. But unlike your dog, it has an app that owners can use to adjust system settings and build in new tricks. It also doesn't dig holes in your backyard, bark incessantly or chew the furniture. You can also connect Aibo to the internet cloud to store its memories. 6G Aibo has been available to consumers in Japan since January. Sony says the bot puppy is designed to connect with owners on an emotional level.
