Major Japanese toy manufacturer Takara Tomy is developing a new breed of robotic dogs. Similar to the company’s i-SOBOT humanoid robot, the i-SODOG also features several joints fitted with custom designed servo motors and comes with a dedicated remote control. However, the i-SODOG can also be controlled via your smartphone.

The Omnibot i-SODOG features realistic movement through 15 custom servo motors. It also features voice recognition and motion sensors for understanding hand signals. It comes with a dedicated remote control but can also be controlled via a smartphone, likely through a Bluetooth connection.

Reminds me of the Sony Aibo. Oh how I wish they had continued building up their robotics division as I can only imagine what a modern Aibo would be capable of. It'd probably still cost an arm and a leg though
