Sony’s adorable robot dog Aibo now comes in chocolate
Sony’s robot dog companion, Aibo, now comes in a brand new colour: chocolate.
The tech giant announced the new special edition, tri-tone shade for its four-legged friend on Tuesday.
An alternative to the standard Bicentennial Man-like white/ivory version, the special edition Aibo will come in three shades of brown, like a real dog, right?
It’s available for preorder now in Japan, with shipping set to start on February 1.
Sony’s all-new Aibo was first unveiled at CES in January 2018, and landed in the U.S. in September . But these adorable robodogs are pretty damn expensive, going for a cool $2,899 each — about as much as MacBook Pro.
Apart from merely resembling a cartoon dog, Aibo uses 22 points of articulation along with motion sensors, including a camera in its nose, to detect and interact with humans and other Aibo dogs.
White or chocolate, they’re bloody expensive, but exceptionally cute companions for people who can’t actually own a real dog.
