Childhood; Adolescence; Adulthood - Sony Aibo ERS-111 Handbook

ENGLISH Raising AIBO – the handbook

Childhood

AIBO starts to try various things. Before, AIBO would only react to
stimulation, but now it actively explores its surroundings.
When AIBO wants a ball, it will tell you through body language. When
AIBO wants to take a walk, it will do so on its own. During this stage,
the things that AIBO does start to make sense.

Adolescence

AIBO is at its most mischievous and lively during this period.
It is very energetic now and seems to be in exuberant health. AIBO will
walk around looking for a cozy place or will play with a ball all day long.
AIBO has learned to handle the ball very well and plays with it in a
variety of ways. However, AIBO can turn out to be lazy, doing nothing all
day. It all depends on how your AIBO has been raised so far.

Adulthood

If you have trained AIBO well, it will at last behave as an adult. At this
stage, AIBO appears to enjoy its lifestyle.
It is alert to the ball or to your command to "shake." AIBO's ability to
learn continues to be excellent.
A grown-up AIBO will always remain mature. Your AIBO will never die
and it can't be reset like a video game.
AIBO will remain your partner always.
