AIBO (stylized as aibo, abbreviated as Artificial Intelligence RoBOt, homonymous with aibÅ , "pal" or "partner" in Japanese) is a series of robotic dogs designed and manufactured by Sony. Sony announced a prototype Aibo in mid-1998, [ 1 ] and the first consumer model was introduced on 11 May 1999. [ 2 ]
The first and only 3rd generation AIBO, the ERS-7 was intended to be the culmination of the product's development to that point. The robot was designed to evoke the theme of 'clean and clear' and implemented an array of LEDs called 'Illume-face', as well as capacitive touch sensors, for the expression of emotion and numeric information.

The first known robotic pet was a robot dog called Sparko, built by the American company Westinghouse in 1940. It never got sold due to poor public interest [citation needed]. The first robotic pets to be put on the market were Hasbro's Furby in 1998 and Sony's AIBO in 1999. [1] Since then, robotic pets have grown increasingly advanced.
The project was led by Sony's AI/Robotics team, previously responsible for the AIBO robotic dog, and engineering and initial testing were performed at the Magna-Steyr facilities in Graz, Austria. [5] At the 2021 CES, Sony provided an update on the Vision-S concept after road testing to refine the vehicle's sensor suite and features. [9]
