Title
A Human-Pet Interactive Entertainment System over the Internet
Abstract
We developed an interactive entertainment system for human and pet over the Internet. The system consists of a Backyard and an Office. The Backyard houses a rooster (the pet) and cameras which capture the movement of the rooster. The rooster wears a small wearable-computer dress equipped with vibrators and wireless camera. The Office has a mechanical positioning system which carries a doll, resembling the rooster. Inside the doll are touch-sensitive sensors. Both spaces are interconnected only by Internet. As the rooster walks, the doll is moved by the positioning system, imitating the path taken by the rooster. At the same time if the human at the Office fondles the doll, the rooster feels the tickling as the vibrators are activated. The video images of the Backyard and that as seen by the rooster, are constantly sent to the Office display.
