First of all, the present invention Terry is to have both the characteristics of the dog and the advantages of the car, it can recognize the voice to recognize the owner's command and perform the action, it has the artificial intelligence to act on its own, sadness and joy and hunger A cute and loyal puppy that can feel and express his back feeling. In addition, the terry of the present invention is designed to grow like a real dog, and then gradually move to a difficult motion by simply moving forward and walking.

In addition, the basic operation of the present invention Terry is five kinds of forward, backward, left turn, right turn, walking, etc., by applying the five basic actions by step-by-step growth, turn left back and walk backward, turn right back and walk backward, Walk back and forth, draw circle, draw back circle, draw 8 characters, draw 8 characters backward, draw square, draw square back, shake (threat), draw zigzag, draw zigzag upside down, turn around, move forward 1 Perform various actions such as Old Mcdonald had a farm, Dancing 2 (Pop goes the weasel), Dancing 3 (Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star), Dancing 4 (Bingo), Dancing 5 (Hickory, Dickory Dock) do.

Thus, the method of commanding a terry command according to the present invention can be largely divided into a voice command method and a keyboard command method.

In the command mode switching method, the command mode is activated only when voice recording is performed. Therefore, the voice command must be recorded in advance as described below. If the red lamp is turned off by checking whether the red lamp of the commander is turned on, it is shaken by the commander.

At this time, when the commander is shaken, the spring sensor detects the shake to maintain the power supply and standby state. The advantage of such a function is that even if the user does not operate the terry of the present invention, if the commander's power is left for a long time, the battery of the commander is discharged, thereby preventing the problem of frequently replacing the battery. In other words, if voice and key commands are not input while the commander is on for a certain period of time, the software automatically adds a function to shut down the battery power to cut off unnecessary power consumption and shake the commander during use. The power is supplied.

In this way, press the command mode button while the red lamp of the commander is turned on. When the command mode button is pressed, the commander emits an infrared signal corresponding to the command signal, and receives the signal from the infrared signal receiver 21 of the terry main body to indicate that the headlight is turned on.

Then, the command selection switch 5 is selected in a desired direction to command the present invention terry by a keyboard command or a voice command method.

At this time, if you want to operate the terry of the present invention in a continuous operation, press the Program mode key, press the key corresponding to the desired operation in turn (up to 12 operations possible), and then press the program run button (Go) to enter. Continuous operation in the correct order.

Next, in order to command by voice, the voice to be commanded must be recorded beforehand. Therefore, a method of storing a voice signal for a voice command is as follows.

First, the program mode is set using the program mode setting button, the restart button is pressed, and then the red lamp 6 is checked to be operated. When the red lamp 6 blinks as described above, the first command (advanced) is recorded close to the mouth of the voice input unit 4 of the commander. Record the first command, make sure that the red lamp (6) is blinking, and then repeat the first command (forward).

If the red lamp (6) flashes after recording the first command repeatedly, record the second command (reverse). After the second command is recorded, the red lamp 6 blinks, and the second command is repeatedly recorded. After the second command is repeatedly recorded as described above, the red lamp 6 blinks, and the third command (left turn) is repeatedly recorded in the same manner as described above.

Record the fourth command (right turn), the fifth command (walk), and the sixth command (auto mode) in the same way.

Therefore, six commands are recorded: forward, backward, left turn, right turn, walking, and automatic mode.

At this time, it is preferable to record the precautions for recording in a quiet place, and record in the above manner by deciding in advance which command to record. If the words are too short or too long, they are not recorded well and the toys are hard to understand. When recording, enter as you normally would and when you enter the command to speak exactly as you do. When the recording and the voice is wrong due to the winding, the toy of the present invention may not recognize the voice.

In order to command the present invention terry by the voice command method in the state in which the voice to be commanded is recorded, the command selection switch 5 is switched to the voice command position, and then the command is voiced through the voice input unit 4 of the commander. Command, the first control unit 14 receives the voice command signal, compares and determines whether it matches the pre-stored voice command signal, and if there is a match, emits the green lamp 7 and transmits the corresponding control signal to the first control signal. 2 Output to the control unit 15. The second controller 15 emits an infrared signal corresponding to a voice command, and the third controller 26 of the terry body of the present invention receives the infrared signal emitted from the commander through the infrared receiver 21. Each unit is controlled to perform the corresponding operation.

In this way, when a command is input by a key input unit or a voice, the present invention terry recognizes the signal and performs the corresponding operation, and if the command is not input for more than 1 minute (does not play with terry) or the power switch is turned off or not fed, Sleeps. As described above, when Terry falls asleep, in order to wake up from sleep, the magnetic sensor provided in the commander is brought close to the magnetic sensor of the main body or stroking the head to wake up.

In addition, when the terry of the present invention is playing and hungry, it sends a signal while "끙끙", and at this time, if the user gives food (thinks the magnetic sensor of the commander and moves the magnetic sensor of the commander to the magnetic sensor of the main body). Terry of the present invention is delicious to express the "냠냠" eating and grow and do not feed the power will fall asleep. In this case, the method of waking up when asleep is as described above.

And if you're cute and want to see him again, you can stroking Terry's head. That is, when stroking the head of the terry body, the tactile sensor provided on the head of the terry body is operated and input to the third control unit 26. Accordingly, the third controller 26 controls the previous operation to be repeated according to the signal of the tactile sensor.
