The 'Kakaloom' pet is a robotic companion created with loneliness in mind to help combat the effects of solitary lifestyles in a decidedly modern way. The pet harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to interpret the emotions of the user to respond according to their voice and touch, while also employing adaptive learning techniques. The robotic pet has a furry finish and a somewhat nondescript design that hides a stepper motor inside along with dual servo motors to move continuously when being used.
The 'Kakaloom' pet will respond to the user with soothing hums when hugged, is compact enough to be carried around the house or traveled with and has a 5,200mAh battery for up to three days of use per charge.
