The robot AI dog that will keep an eye on children and the elderly

Sony’s incredible puppy-sized robot dog aibo is equipped with cameras, artificial intelligence and internet capability.
It can now remotely check up on family members, children or even pets.
It is just 30 cm with flapping ears and cutting-edge LED eyes.
The owner will receive progress reports via smartphone.
The latest aibo model, which can also display “emotions”, was released in January last year and sales hit 20,000 in the first six months, according to Sony.
It costs nearly $3000.
In the era of the Internet of Things and facing a rapidly ageing population, Japan has mobilised rice cookers, electric pots and other household devices to keep watch on elderly people living alone.
