Of the first science fiction heroes as K9 in Dr. Who, o Muffit in the original Battlestar GalacticaRobot dogs have long been a basic element of television and movies, but despite the predictions of each futuristic of the last 30 to 50 years, domestic robots or robots pets have not yet become a common place in 2025, unless it tells the best robot vacuum cleaners.
The history of robbo-Dogs dates back to a long way. Sony was one of the first companies to really get robot dogs with its Aibo range, which was first launched in 1999 in Japan, but, while it is still on sale ($ 2,899.99!), It seems to have been silent lately.
Since then, there have been others, such as the Dog-E coined, but with all the advances in AI that are happening at this time, it seems inevitable that intelligent robotic dogs return.
The last robbery dog that tries to caress our lives is Sirius, from HENGBOT. Sirius is a programmable and customizable robotic dog based on AI designed to become his faithful digital friend.
Emotionally intelligent
It is the AI that really makes Sirius different from previous robbery dogs. Described as “emotionally intelligent,” Sirius has his own personality and can imitate the movements of real dogs such as jumping, stretching and even dancing.
Sirius can handle voice recognition, natural language processing and image recognition. You can even understand your gestures. You can teach you tricks, synchronize gestures with voice commands and even upload personalized facial expressions.
With approximately 10 inches high, Sirius is approximately the size of a Chihuahua. Nor is it too heavy, with a 1 kg frame built from a aerospace degree alloy for rapid and receptive actions. Within his AI brain, Sirius has up to 5 tops of edge computer power and comes with USB-C peripheral expansion and a powerful 2250 mAh battery that offers a promised time of 40 to 60 minutes of play.
A new robotic species
“With Sirius, we not only build a robot, we create the first of a new type of robotic species,” said Peiheng Song, CEO of HENGBOT. “Promoted by our neurocore system, Sirius marks the beginning of a growing universe of smart and customizable robots designed to give life to its imagination.”
Sirius is designed to be easy to customize and program, be it a curious child, robot owner for the first time or an expert technology developer.
Use a visual editor similar to a game that you can use to choreographer dance routines, teach personalized Sirius tricks or train, without coding.
