.
Living with AIBO — AIBO , an independent roommate Communication is the key to having a fulfilling partnership with AIBO. This section describes the nature of this autonomous r obot and gives tips on how to communicate with it. A better understanding of AIBO will give you more enjoyment with it.
50 AIBO’ s autonomous activities AIBO, an autonomous r obot, was created to have emotions, instincts, learning ability and the capacity to matur e. According to its own judgement, it r esponds to people and movements, sounds or colors of balls.
51 AIBO’ s autonomous activities Changing the sleeping AIBO to autonomous mode Gently shake AIBO awake. If AIBO is sleeping on the station, first move it to a flat surface and place it properly (see page 39), then shake it awake.
52 AIBO’ s autonomous activities Communicating via touch sensor The touch sensor on its head reacts to thr ee kinds of human touch: Appr oval, scolding and drawing AIBO’s attention. When touching the sensor , press the mark at the center of its head.
53 AIBO’ s autonomous activities When AIBO cannot get up from a fall AIBO tries to get up by itself when it falls. When it is not able to stand up, it will ask you for help with the r obot language. Give it your hand (Fig. 1) and straighten it up (Fig.
54 A psychological peek into your r obot The key to better human-r obot communication and better understanding of AIBO’s behavior is to be aware of its emotions, instincts, learning ability and maturational pr ocess. Emotions AIBO is sensitive to and can feel emotions such as joy , sadness, anger , surprise, fear and discontent.
55 A psychological peek into your robot Instincts AIBO has four key instincts which strongly contribute to motives of its actions (love instinct, search instinct, movement instinct and rechar ge instinct). Love instinct: AIBO is naturally inclined to interact with people who will give it care.
56 A psychological peek into your robot Education AIBO’s education is closely linked to building its personality , character and intelligence. Like humans and other animals, it learns a great deal fr om experience.
57 A psychological peek into your robot Body language 18 degrees of fr eedom (a total of 18 joints) make AIBO’s rich body language possible. AIBO shows its emotions, reactions and will with body languages as shown below . These movements are just several examples of the emotion shown with AIBO’s body language.
58 AIBO can also show its will to us by using dif ferent combinations of body language. Example: When it wishes to play with a ball, AIBO tells us so by doing as below . When it gestures to its head or to you with its paw , then shakes both paws up and down, asking for attention, it wishes to be rubbed on the head or wants to play with you.
59 Other r obotic expr essions Although body language is the most direct way for AIBO to show its emotions or desires, it has other means of expr essing itself. When in the autonomous mode, AIBO is always in one robotic state of mind or another . AIBO shows these states by using robot language or flashing its eye lamps.
60 Naps and bedtime AIBO takes a nap for 5 to 30 minutes when not communicating with anyone or when tir ed of playing. It can be woken up by a gentle shake. Please be aware that AIBO can be offended by the interruption to its nap and may wake up in a sour mood.
