Communication by AIBO
* Some AIBO cards serve dual functions, depending on how they are presented when you show them to the AIBO robot.
In this guide, the things you can do with AIBO cards are noted with the
list of available AIBO cards, see "List of AIBO cards" (page 155).
Each AIBO robot is unique
As the AIBO robot lives with you, learning to remember its favorite things (page 75) and the
face and name of its owner (page 72), it will develop into a pet that is uniquely yours.
Depending on your communication with the AIBO robot and its environment, the character
of the AIBO robot will change, which manifests itself in the actions it performs and in the
words and phrases it uses. One of the pleasures of communicating with the AIBO robot is to
observe and influence these changes.
By using AIBO Custom Manager 3, you can play new games with the AIBO robot and have
it dance and sing as you wish. Download AIBO Custom Manager 3 from the AIBO web site
(http://www.aibo.com).
