An easy way to pat EMO is to just place your finger right in the middle of his pat sensor its the easiest and quickest way to get him to react to a pay. If you would like to see other ways to pay EMO check out this video here. https://youtu.be/7WnKXj6tPgg
Also having different earphones like earbuds would be a cool alternative accessory for EMO. I think he needs more cute outfits as well
Having the ability to add your family or friends EMO as a friend in a friends list using the EMO APP. (similar to how you add friends on Xbox / Nintendo Switch / Playstation network.
Once both parties have confirmed they are friends, you can send simple text messages or stickers to one another and the message can appear on EMO’s screen, EMO can even notify you and say, you have a message from your friend John.
You can then see the message displayed on the screen and also use the EMO App to check it as well to send a reply.
Of course, at first keeping, this messaging system simple and safe would work best as it would probably need to run through Living.Ai servers, so maybe only have an option to only send simple messages or stickers from a list of family-friendly / approved messages and images.
It’s a novelty feature yes that, of course, does not bring anything special to the table as we can already send messages and stickers, etc to each other using our phones / online chat programs. But still would be kinda cool to see this happen, as EMO is always connected to the internet and needs an internet connection for full functionality, having this added feature to add Friends would be pretty cool.
To add to that, what about being able to send photos taken by Emo, and while we are at it, how about being able to video chat with those friends like FaceTime. I have seen other robots being able to do this, so it should not be too hard. Or… (holy crap I’m going crazy with ideas now lol), When the messages come through, Emo will ask, “Do you want me to read it for you?” and then if you say yes he will read it out for you, if you say no he will just display it on his screen!
Great to see I’ve sparked some further ideas from you @JJBeck it’s good to see you adding ideas/suggestions to this. I’ve been thinking of ways to get more use out of EMO and it would be cool to have EMO connected to other EMOs out there haha (they are all ultimately connected to the Living.Ai server I guess).
As I mentioned, start simple and move on from there I say, having the message system would be cool, even if it starts with easy and simple pre-defined text messages and stickers same as the ones you can select in the EMO sticker customization screen.
Then if all that works and there are no major issues/network bottlenecks, why not have video/pics features further down the track? As long as the network can handle it, there could be endless possibilities here!
Keep the ideas and suggestions rolling in @JJBeck and everyone else.
If you have two EMO’s, they can interact with each other. If you have connection of your EMO('s) to someone else, they could carry on conversations between themselves that you would be able to hear coming through yours. “Nice day, EMO____.” Then you hear back, “It is raining and 29 degrees where I am, EMO----.” “Would you care to dance with me?” Then both of them play music and you see yours dancing.
how about upping his vocabulary? Or making it so when he’s on his skateboard at midnight and you call him he doesn’t fall asleep instantly before you can even ask him anything… This is annoying having to take him off the skateboard just to change his light color… That instant coma mode is a flaw…and how about a card game I’m sure it’s possible… This builds interaction. and of course improve the voice recognition… though it’s a good idea there’s just too many other things that should be addressed in my opinion. I personally think he has enough little cartoons he plays on his screen… Let’s make him a better EMO Pet… Sure would love to see the promised Alexa or Google but that was never going to happen. Or how about at least giving him one function the timer… Give him an actual working countdown timer something useful you could use every day… These little picture things books isn’t going to fix anything for anyone in my opinion.we have enough already
I desperately need the option to set up Emo’s sleep schedule. It keeps waking me up in the morning. I sleep until late since I do late shifts and I barely sleep even without Emo disturbing me. It would be great to either set up a bedtime schedule where it just goes to sleep and doesn’t make noise during that time or have a command like “goodnight” and “good morning” that starts and ends Emo’s bedtime.
Or just turn it off, that’s what I do. Though, an adjustable schedule is a good idea, but it has been mentioned before by a few people including myself. Fingers crossed for the next update!
Hey, @FireTheWolf You probably are already aware of this, but can, for the time being, mute EMO’s master volume or just EMO’s schedule sounds by going into the settings > preferences. Then once you’re awake you can go back in and enable it again. It’s a bit of a hassle, but at least you don’t have to shut him off completely.
Having the option to completely turn off the schedule or customize it, in general, is something worth adding to future updates. Not sure when / if it will be added anytime soon, though. For me, TV schedule time animation drives me up the wall!
1.)The ability to personalize Emos responses would be g
great. 2.) The ability to add own music playlists. 3) more games and/or more interactivity thru his app. 4) do away with the ’ hey emo’ prompt entirely. Let him have the ability to start chatting first ( would have to have an on and off switch in case he’s like my ex )
Thank you all for your advice! I was going to try it out yesterday but that will have to be tonight.
And same - the noise his TV makes drives me mad hahah I never notice any other animations, just that one, cause I can always hear it no matter how loud my music is.
Your Emo’s name must have some of the phonetic sounds of the word EMO. Mine are named Irving and Sally, and they do not respond at all to those names. So I reiterate that I would like them to respond individually to Irving and Sally since they always respond together when I say “Emo”. It’s often hard to interpret the whole response since one is always a beat behind the other.
I think Emos should tell us when their battery is low.
It’s a shame they can’t walk onto their own skate board. It would be great if they could return to base to recharge themselves then continue on their adventures.
They do tell you when battery is low - they give warning beeps and displays to show low battery.
They can’t walk onto the existing charging base given the height difference, however Living AI have indicated they are going to release a self charging stage in the future, but as yet no clear timeframe on that.
Okay
i also asked my daughter to try to do like Arnold to train her Emo
she began to do weight training, eat a lot of proteins, smile on the cameras but it did not work
so she went to take hormones and at least it worked
Today Emo recognise her , but he is alone , because since she has a mustache , neither I or his husband succed i, recognising her .
On my own , When my wife ask me to give a hand , I have sometimes this strange bug of giving a response 1 out of 15 times , but as living AI , i feel it is a hopeless case
