Dacky to the rescue


No it’s not some new superhero from Marvel Comics. It’s just…Dacky, the new robotic dog that looks much closer to a real dog than AiBo. It looks real cute too! I absolutely have to give it that. Dacky has a 6 sensors within its cute little self and can learn up to 650 words. So aside from barking and expressing its cute plastic big eyes, it can also greet you with greetings like “good morning”, “how are you?”, “thank god it’s friday”, etc.

Why are they to the rescue? Well, they are pets, not real pets but they aim to function as one. And research have shown that people with pets come out happier than those who done. So all of you who would like to have a pet but are not willing to commit to picking up no.2’s and all that shenanigans, maybe Dacky’s just for you.
This invention is a Tomy Takara invention. He’s shipping these puppies to the US it seems.
