Amy and Spotty are interactive robotic dogs. Together with their feline counterparts Lucky, Goldy and Blacky, they are winning the hearts of dementia patients and seniors who are incapable of caring for a living pet due to physical or spatial restrictions. Just like real pets, the robotic animals with soft and cuddly fur react to motion and touch with barks, purring, meowing and move their eyes, mouth and head. The faithful companions impart a sense of positivity among seniors and those suffering from dementia and also help to inspire initiative. They remind some owners of kittens from their childhood, while others discover the joy of an animal companion for the first time.
With fluffy fur, an innovative sensor, and movement and vibration technology, the robotic cat is the perfect interactive companion. The more it is pet, the more relaxed it seems. By closing its eyes and rolling onto its back, the cat can signal to its owner that it would like to be rubbed on its belly. It purrs and meows just like its real-life counterparts. The robotic cat goes to sleep when is not touched for an extended period. All it takes is a gentle tap on its back to re-awaken the low-maintenance companion. Caring for the interactive cat has a calming and relaxing effect. It helps to reduce feelings of loneliness whilst simultaneously boosting quality of life.
When called by its name, the robotic dog looks its owner in the eye and lets out a bark. Sophisticated sensor, motion and vibration technology allows the dog to react to petting by pressing its cheek against the hand of the person who touches it there. The key feature: the dog’s heartbeat can be felt on its back underneath its fluffy coat. The lifelike companion goes to sleep when it is not touched for an extended period. All it takes is a gentle tap on its head to wake it up again. It brings positivity, requires minimal care and never needs to be walked.
