MOFLIN AI Robot - Yes You Can Have A Tribble
There are a lot of older science fiction fans who really wanted a tribble when they were kids. What's a tribble, you ask? They are natives of the planet Iota Geminorum IV. Don't overfeed them, though.
(The Trouble with Tribbles)
This artificially intelligent robotic pet - MOFLIN - is a pretty good substitute.
MOFLIN is an AI Pet created from a totally new concept. It possesses emotional capabilities that evolve like living animals. With its warm soft fur, cute sounds, and adorable movement, you’d want to love it forever. We took a nature inspired approach and developed a unique algorithm that allows MOFLIN to learn and grow by constantly using its interactions to determine patterns and evaluate its surroundings from its sensors. MOFLIN will choose from an infinite number of mobile and sound pattern combinations to respond and express its feelings. To put it in simple terms, it’s like you’re interacting with a living pet.
