AIBO’s instincts
AIBO has five key instincts that provide motivation
for its actions: love instinct, search instinct,
movement instinct, recharge instinct, and sleep
instinct.
Love instinct: AIBO is naturally inclined to interact with people who
will give it care. If left alone for an extended period of time, AIBO will
feel an urge to play.
Search instinct: AIBO is a fun-loving, curious robotic creature who
enjoys discovering new things, satisfying its curiosity. If AIBO does
not see its favorite color or if it does not sense any movement in its
surroundings for a long period of time, it will become restless and will
look for something new.
Movement instinct: AIBO enjoys moving around, playing and having
new experiences. If idle for an extended period of time, AIBO will start
to move around on its own.
Recharge instinct: For survival, AIBO is well aware that it must “eat.”
Lithium ion batteries are on the bill of fare for AIBO and battery power
is craved almost like clockwork throughout the day between activities.
When AIBO is low on battery power, it will request to be charged and
will change to the charging posture on its own.
