In this fast paced world, humans are so busy in their daily lives, that in spite of having a special corner in their hearts for canines, they are unable to take out enough time for our four-legged friends. To cater to such busy yet yearning hearts, WowWee has developed a robotic friend called CHiP. CHiP, which stands for ‘Canine Home intelligent Pet’, is world’s first robotic dog with artificial intelligence. A Chihuahua-sized plastic-bodied robot, he comes with LED blue eyes and pointy ears.

CHiP is directly connected through bluetooth to a wristband, which is used to give commands and helps translate his language to make you understand what he wants.

CHiP can also be controlled through an app that can be installed on your phones. Besides the wristband, it comes with a charging bed and a play ball. It can assess its own energy levels and is trained to return to the ‘bed’ whenever the energy levels drop. CHiP can fetch a ball, dance, run around, respond to love and do mostly everything that you train him to do, which ensures that no two CHiPs are alike.

Want more? CHiP greets you when you come home, senses obstacles and is capable of taking  out all ‘doggie noises.’ He is a robot with emotions, accepts and responds to love like any other dog and is a near-perfect substitute for a fur ball.

Enough to make you feel like a pet parent, isn’t it?
