Why not just have it make the sound of an electric can opener?

Just a question - this thing dispenses food, so what happens if Fido decides to give that embedded CCD camera a nice big lick? You know, just to see.

If Robopet instead of you the owner is caring for the pet, then what is the point of owning a pet?
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming...

The point is OWNING a pet. If you own it, you can do with it as you like. It's the same with children. :jawdrop:

Pet food cans in Japan have handy opening ring pulls. Actually, most cans have these..

Also, I have never seen an electric can opener in Japan... but I have never understood the need for an electric can opener... takes up bench space and wastes electricity and difficult to keep clean.

My Kitty Fuzzbutt comes running whenever a beer or chu-hi poptop is pulled...No wonder the beast is so damn skinny racing for non-food items.

Me too ... but I hate it when it turns out to be cat food instead.

I suspect AOS Technology's next product will be iSeehusbando - which will allow ladies to see their salaryman (or pet FG) via the CCD camera when they sound music to call them for dispensing of beer and the playing of porn on a little monitor.
