Along with futuristic products, some weird and unique gadgets are also being announced at CES 2023, which may seem crazy and gimmicky on the surface, but they still work. Recently, we covered the Fufuly pillow that reduces your stress levels within minutes. And now FluentPet has a recordable voice button system through which you can communicate with your dog. Do you find it interesting? Read on to learn more about it.
CES 2023 – Talk to your pets with FluentPet!
FluentPet has developed an app-connected voice button system called FluentPet Connect that allows your dog to communicate with you. The company has also shown how it works. Basically, you get a kit with different buttons that can be programmed for different functions. When a dog presses the button, it says the voice command, which is relayed to you via a speaker or the app. This way you can know what your dog wants.
You can use your own voice to record voice commands for various buttons. For example, you can say "water" or "do you want water?" or "go out" and so on. Dogs already know words and communicate accordingly. But what is interesting here is that dogs also learn to press the buttons to communicate with their owner.
According to FluentPet's research, about 70% of dogs start to have two buttons within a month. And over time, dogs learn up to 9 words. Since the first product launch in 2020, the company has gathered over 100,000 households and discovered that dogs not only learn a word, but also happen to use combinations of words. CEO of FluentPet, Leo Trottier who has studied cognitive science and AI says that dogs can translate and communicate what they want to say through the buttons.
