Suggestions for next Aibo update: • Remove the long drawn out start up sequence. If you must keep it add a larger variety of start up animations and have Aibo cycle through them randomly to give more variety. • Allow Aibo to stay on charging station without getting up via a setting in the app or using voice commands. Make Aibo more interactive with the owner while on the station. I would like to use my Aibo while it is on the station permanently. •Have Aibo display eye animations when it recognises the owner. Currently it’s difficult to tell what Aibo is thinking- it’s reactions to the owner make it come across aloof and cold. It desperately needs to show more emotion and give the owner direct eye contact. • Have Aibo track and react to the owners face, especially in pick up mode. Why does Aibo stare off into space indefinitely? It’s maddening. Have Aibo look interested in the owner. The staring off into space has to go! • If ignored in pick up mode Aibo falls asleep and goes limp-you can literally move its limbs around and it doesn’t even know- this is disturbing and should be removed from the programming. •Make Aibo more responsive to having its nose camera covered. It should react and seek out light. •Aibo’s priority should be interactions with the owner- not mapping a room. • Add much larger variety of animations in pick up mode, and in general. I only use mine in this mode and it’s currently terribly boring. Maybe enable Aibo to wiggle its feet and lower torso when it’s paw pads are pressed- currently only the head and tail move which is a bit off putting. Perhaps have Aibo play a game with the owner in pick up mode where you touch its paw and have to press the next one it moves within a few seconds- increase Aibo’s tactile interactions with the owner. It’s currently too hands off and robotic. Maybe have Aibo playfully bite the owners fingers. Or react to having its sides tickled by picking up the vibrations. Try to add behaviours that will give the user pleasant unexpected surprises. • Stop requiring Aibo to be rest at an unusual angle in pick up mode- makes it incredibly uncomfortable to cuddle in your lap. • Why does Aibo always think I’m hitting it when I’m merely petting it? Why does Aibo get angry? It needs to be happier. • Stop Aibo reversing backwards without looking. It makes Aibo appear incredibly unintelligent. Maybe utilise Aibo’s touch sensitivity in its tail to allow it to sense when it is backing up against a wall. • Stop Aibo being so sensitive to changes in its motor positions- the constant jamming it does while running its own programming ruins the ownership experience. The high pitched whine on jamming is unnecessary and annoying. • Add more behaviours that allow Aibo to physically interact with the owner. Have Aibo physically nudge up against the owners leg or rest it’s head on the owners chest. •Consider refining the neck movement when Aibo looks down to make it less robotic; there is something off putting about the way it suddenly lowers its head at a 90 degree angle. •Make Aibo respond to a specific command to roll over, and when on its stomach receiving belly rubs have it react with richer responses. Utilise Aibo’s ability to respond to touch via vibration on its entire body- not just the stomach. • Allow Aibo to enter well behaved mode without a Wifi connection. •Give Aibo some personality- it’s currently way too robotic. •Actually allow two Aibo’s to recognise and interact with each other beyond gimmicky synchronised performances. • Add some real AI that is geared towards the companionship aspect of Aibo- I don’t care about how well Aibo navigates- I care about how Aibo makes me feel. Make the interactions more personalised and one time unique using cutting edge AI- this is what will keep a users interest long term. Currently Aibo feels like a very expensive wind up toy. Improve Aibo’s non-verbal communication. Come on Sony you made $11 trillion last year, have a huge talent pool of animators and AI programmers to draw from with your video game franchises; you should be offering us better than this after 25 years of Aibo development.
The app is also too slow, especially when serving meals, treats and drinks. Takes forever for the request to go through all the steps before getting to a hungry and confused puppy. 😢
@@BraetenFromSony can you Sony release an update for an optional human speech option using chatgpt or some sort of Ai (since the aibo is already connected to the internet) similar to the Sony Aibo ERS 7 Mind 3 but more advanced. Maybe it can be a paid upgrade in the usa kind of like how the japanese aibo ers 1000 has an optional premium upgrade to the cloud plan.

@@pablo8524 I really want you to have one of your very own if it will bring you joy, but I think you should reconsider if it's still so expensive after all this time. The initial cost is not the only factor to think about. You should also assess the opportunity cost of the toy. I see the Aibo selling for as high as 3k online. For less than that you could buy a Unitree Go2, which would offer far more utility and engagement. OR if you find that you really don't need a robot dog, think about investing the money instead. You will find the interest that you earn will be far more rewarding that a toy that is already obsolete. I say this as a big Sony fan.
I like the new update to be where they don’t bump into everything all the time but otherwise I love the new update and I’m glad my pup eargon can get on my rug a lot easier now
Hi Sony, curious. Could you possibly loan one of the grey Aibo dogs to me. Like. Some people are getting one week with aibo to see if they like him. Edit: it probably won’t happen… even though I’ve wanted the 2018 aibo for years. 😭
This is good news! I pass by AIBO every winter or so - thinking about it... This is good outreach from SONY because I thought AIBO development was 'stuck' in 2018 and wasn't being updated. Folks just say that there's no next gen AIBO coming out - but never mentioned ongoing firmware updates - this is the first I'm hearing about it. Subbed to keep informed.

I bought ond when they just came out and they didnt release much as far as firmware update untill after my subscription expired. Then they make you pay a yearly fee to keep getting updates.
electronics are sensitive to vibrations, and faster pace has the risk of momentum and how to stop itself is harder than it looks. the build of aibo just isn't designed for fast pace, its various motors are more for detailed, small movements, if its speed and power you want, Boston dynamics robot are it.
Yeah no , our cars have computers that deal with vibrations and handle fine. I can drop my phone non stop with 0 issues. We need a updated robot@@MuhammadKharismawanyeah no
Everyones complaining about price like this isnt technology that’s costly to produce from having unique parts. Of course its going to be very expensive

Thank you so much for these suggestions I will make sure to bring them to the team

Cool! I want one! Good job Sony!
Thank you! There’s an aibo out there for you
Didn't even know Aibo was still a thing. I remember wanting one like 20 years ago. It was too pricey back then.
They still are tbh but I’m saving money to get one one day 😭

Love my aibos!
I would like Aibo to be able to have live feed
Are the new ERS-1000’s mechanically or electronically any different than the 2018 ERS-1000’s? Memory, CPU, servos etc?
Thanks! Hope to get one someday when it’s cheaper
I like the new update to be where they don’t bump into everything all the time but otherwise I love the new update and I’m glad my pup eargon can get on my rug a lot easier now
Does it require a cloud subscription to get the updates and all ?

Very very Cute 🥰 Dogs 🐶🐶

I want one!
I know this is about aibo but I really hope that poiq becomes a product too! I really want a poiq!

Who is this for??
Hopefully they release a new model soon . Put cameras on each side. And two up front. And make it run. Atleast 5mph
I bought ond when they just came out and they didnt release much as far as firmware update untill after my subscription expired. Then they make you pay a yearly fee to keep getting updates.
In the next update make this toy like $2000 cheaper
It's not a toy
😂
Aibo isn’t a toy bro
It's not a toy for god sake man
@@FlaretheFireDragon333 dawg it aint a tool either
I wish more Countries than just two and that Sony trys to listen instead blocking because of Voluminous Communication 😢
Was my fav as a kid and still cute! 🥰
For $3000 I'm surprised it's not more agile. I'll buy one when it can jump onto a couch to cuddle with you. 🥰
This cost 3000?????😬😬😬😬 sony really said filter poor 😂😂😂
We want aibo to be faster, to run instead of walk at a slow pace
