Rover, move over
The world of consumer robotics seems to want nothing more than to replace our pets, and dogs have been the perennial focus. The latest offering is the i-SODOG from Takara Tomy -- a complex robotic dog that does almost everything your dog does, and some things it doesn't. The dog comes with a variety of preprogrammed behavior, but is also programmed to learn through training. If the training doesn't work, you can control the robotic dog with a remote control, or with your smartphone, wirelessly.
