In Japan, Casio's Moflin robot-pet is equipped with artificial intelligence and is able to shape the character, depending on the "upbringing", has gained popularity. This was reported by Mainichi.
The robot with a furious artificial intelligence is able to show more than 4 million versions of unique personality, recognizes the person who is most commonly communicating with him, and remembers his preferences, shoot and hug.
As the head of the project Erina Ichikava explained, the development was initially aimed at women. The concept involved creating a "assistant" that could support personal or work. The sale started in November and in March, the company sold more than 7,000 robots, exceeding the planned indicators. The biggest demand was observed among women aged 30-40.
Moflin is for sale at 59,400 yen (about 32.1 thousand rubles). A special "salon" is designed for robot fur care. According to Ichikava, the owners estimate that each Mufflin has individual emotions, behavioral and sleep mode, which complements the impression of a "live" pet.
