Abstract
An electronic pet and a system therewith are provided herein. The electronic pet includes a driving device, a sensing device used to sense light, sound and contact/non-contact stimulations from an external environment, a signal transceiver device used to transceive signals to and from devices other than the electronic pet, and a processor. The pet interaction system includes an electronic pet, a system sensing device used to sense a position of the electronic pet and a physiological status of a user, a dummy, a system signal transceiver device used to transceive signals to and from the electronic pet and the dummy, and a system processor.
Claims11
A pet interaction system, comprising:
- at least an electronic pet comprising a diving device which comprises:
- a sealed main body with at least one flexible portion disposed on at least one part of the main body wherein the sealed main body is sealed from water external to the sealed main body by the at least one flexible portion together with the main body;
- and
- an actuator, directly connected to the flexible portion through a transmission shaft, wherein the actuator is adapted for controlling the air density of the diving device by pulling or pushing the flexible portion inwards or outwards through the transmission shaft respectively;
- a system sensing device which senses a position of the electronic pet and a physiological status of a user and generates a system sensing signal;
- a dummy converting a received stimulation or sensed signals to the dummy into a dummy signal;
- a system signal communicating device, wherein the electronic pet and the dummy respectively transmit an electronic pet signal and the dummy signal to the system signal communicating device;
- and
- a system processor, wherein the system sensing device transmits the system sensing signal to the system processor, the system signal communicating device transmits the electronic pet signal and the dummy signal to the system processor, the system processor processes the system sensing signal, the electronic pet signal and the dummy signal and controls the system signal communicating device and further controls the electronic pet and the dummy through the system signal communicating device.
