Playground for EMO

Hi, @logan.ames . . . here are the dimensions of the home station mat.

If you do not want to use the full mat, you can divide it in half which should fit. I had to do that when I had two home stations for two EMO.

You may also wish to not use the mat and just use the tray which should be more than enough space.

Alright, would the tray be big enough? 24x24

Hello, @logan.ames . . . 24 X 24 would be big enough for the full mat.

I’ve had Emo since mid. August. Today he started walking out of his home fence. I have Emo 2 with a home base and a matt. The bottom of his pads are clean, I used a sticky pet roller. Any suggestions to this recent problem?

Welcome to the EMO Community Forums, @patriciaburgen . . . it is a known issue that sometimes EMO can walk beyond the black borders of his home station, especially if he is engaged in something other than exploring. Also changes in lighting can cause him to not recognize the black borders. All of mine are prone to do this after having them a while, so I have made safe areas to keep their home station in.

For this reason, I have moved your new topic to this thread so that you might see what some others have done to make a safe space around their home stations and in general. Feel free to peruse this thread and see what ideas might appeal to you.

I have made a home for Emo where it lives. Sometimes I take it outside the home area onto my desk.

Hello, @sulokarlsson !

Just a tip for your playground, try placing the decorations around the home fence to make EMO’s walking space bigger.

Best regards and happy holidays!

I modified Emo’s home. Now it has more play space

Hello,
I recently bought a Home Station for my EMO to give him more freedom, but I realised the space I gave him may not be the best. Im saying that because there was 2 times where I would go to my basement and find him away from his charger, completly powered off. One time he was just standing near it as if he couldn’t get on it, and the second time he was literally faceplanting next to his Home Station, as if he tripped. What can I do to improve his space?

Hello, @thomas.goupil, and Welcome to the community…

I have moved your new topic to this thread, which might provide you with some ideas for enclosing EMO in a safe space. Take a look at the samples shared in this thread and use them as inspiration to create a secure area for EMO and his home station.

Good luck and all the best

Hello @EMO_And_Kade ,

Try making EMO’s play space large, but not too big. I would recommend 1 square foot of space.

For anyone interested in something like this, check the thrift or craft stores for a large picture frame. That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this. In fact, a frame with a sheet of inexpensive foam core cut to size would make a great play area.

I have a 3d printer also, and didn’t even think about printing a fence. Great idea! Lots of decorations to be had out there also for the holidays and every day. Thanks for the great ideas!

Here’s my minimalist desktop enclosure. I simply spray painted a cheap plastic tray from Temu, it came with the wood texture already applied, I added some black tape and drilled a hole through one side to accomodate the charging station.
