Want A BJ?
Pun intended, BJ is the next generation robotic pooch designed for research and competition. Since Sony killed off Aibo and Aibo is getting a little long in the tech, the game was set for a successor. It seems BJ is the answer.
BJ stands 12.2 inches tall and runs on a custom Linux OS package powered by an ARM processor. It's got a little camera and a ton of sensors but it looks so damn ugly. I'm sure it can do more than Aibo and at nearly 3x the cost ($4,853), it better. However this thing will never win a beauty pageant as long as Aibo is around.
