i-Cybie (爱赛比) is a robotic pet that resembles a dog. It was manufactured by Silverlit Toys Manufactory Ltd Hong Kong from 2000 to 2006. i-Cybie was developed for commercial distribution by Tiger Electronics. Outrageous International Hong Kong distributed the electronic pet from 2005 to 2006. The i-Cybie robotic dog responds to sound, touch, movement, and voice commands. The toy robot can autonomously recharge its batteries using a special docking station. I-Cybie was the first mass-produced toy that used advanced voice recognition technology..〔http://www.industryhk.org/english/survey/files/MadeInPRD_III_Toy_ENG_2010.pdf〕 ==Features== i-Cybie has 16 built-in motors which allow 16 degrees of freedom. There are three CPU’s—the main Toshiba TMP91C815F for motion control and for mood calculation, a SunPlus Technology CPU used for audio playback, and an RSC 364 used for voice recognition and recording.〔http://servo.texterity.com/servo/200312/?pg=13#pg13〕 i-Cybie is constructed using 1400 parts, and more than 90 feet of wire.〔http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Man's+Best+Friend+Just+Got+Better%3B+Introducing+i-Cybie,+Tiger's+Most...-a076864929〕 The robot uses a suite of sensors to determine mood and behavior. *Dimensions * *Height: * *Width: * *Length: * *Weight: about *Light Sensor (nose)— for motion detection in "guard" mode. *Infrared Obstacle Detector (chest array)—for collision avoidance and edge detection. The chest array is also used to communicate with other toys (robo-chi, i-Cybie) and for receiving remote commands. *Touch Sensors (back button, head button, nose button)— influence the i-Cybie's moods and behavior. *Microphones (4)—three microphones are used to hear sharp sounds and one is used to discriminate voice. The robot can localize the direction of a sharp sound and move towards it.〔http://servo.texterity.com/servo/200312/?pg=13#pg13〕 I-Cybies can recognize spoken commands and respond in a specific manner. Voice recognition features biometric authentication.〔http://www.13thmonkey.org/documentation/hardware/chips/80-0116.pdf〕 Voice recognition is activated by the head contact sensor or by the remote control unit. *Orientation Sensor—the robot can detect whether it has fallen over. The orientation sensor also contributes to the robot's mood. *Encoders (12)- three per leg, position legs. *Dynamic Drive feedback-it can sense when its limbs are jammed and take action to free itself. *Light Sensor (back)— for use in mood and behavior calculations. The light sensor can also detect petting and can initiate behavior. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「I-Cybie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
