Yet another thing you can do with AIBO, Sony's artificially intelligent dog.
The NEtROBOt project aims to establish a new concept of communication over the internet, getting the feel of existence in the virtual world by interacting with an actual robot, "AIBO".
The goal is to create an un-simultaneous communication and 3D space sharing system using web3d techniques and AIBO as an interface. The project proposes new entertainment content by virtually interacting within this 3D world to trigger images, sound, music and AIBO dances. 3D models of AIBO are displayed on a web browser while the real AIBO is by your side. He bridges the communication between you and his avatar in the 3D world.
This is one of those times when seeing it in action is the only way to do it any justice.
