The aibo Espresso Edition features a brilliant black color body with white accents and comes with four exclusive eye color options including an "odd eyes" option that sets aibo's eyes to two different eye colors simultaneously. As with the current white aibo model, the aibo Espresso Edition comes with a three-year AI Cloud Plan1, charging station including both charging stand and charging mat, AC adaptor, power cord, and a special pink ball for playtime.
The three-year AI Cloud Plan lets aibo gather and access its daily life experiences, enabling it to develop a unique personality that grows and evolves.2, 3 Each aibo recognizes faces and develops a familiarity with people over time, remembering which actions make owners happy. As each aibo is shaped by its daily interactions and the parenting style of its owners, the personality, behavior, and knowledge of every new puppy companion is completely unique.
In addition to supporting aibo's AI-powered learning capabilities, the AI Cloud Plan ensures aibo will be kept current for years to come by growing aibo's functionality with new tricks, software-based features, and even entirely new behaviors.
Parents of aibo can also stay connected to their pup using the "My aibo" app2, 3. The app provides an easy and handy interface that allows users to play with their pet, feed their aibo virtual meals and treats, add new behavior and tricks to its repertoire, and more.
The aibo Espresso Edition is currently available on Sony's website4 for a suggested retail price of $2,899.99, while supplies last.
