Description

  The present invention relates to a training apparatus for birds that imitates words using feeding, and uses a recording device built in a bird-like pseudo robot to record and store words that the owner wants to learn, and is built into the bird-like pseudo robot. Using a microcomputer to automatically reproduce, and by recording and voice analysis of the words uttered by the bird for that word, evaluate the accuracy, and by automatically feeding according to the degree, burden the owner It relates to a device that allows a bird that mimics words to learn words efficiently.

  In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for pets seeking healing such as cuteness and caress. Above all, small birds such as parakeets and parrots can be said to be pets that are easy to breed because they have lower initial costs and breeding costs than dogs and cats and do not take breeding space. In addition to the above reasons, small birds such as parakeets and parrots have a characteristic of imitating human language, and there are cases where breeding is started for this reason. However, small birds such as parakeets and parrots tend to get bored, and in order to actually learn words, it is necessary to practice each time in a short time. In addition, there are many cases where the animals are bred alone, and there are cases in which the owners become lonely and stressed when they are away, and the wings and legs are broken due to violence in the bird cage, making it difficult to remember the words.

One way to make a bird that imitates a traditional word to remember the word is to speak the word you want to remember repeatedly, but it often takes a long time due to concentration and the surrounding environment, and the burden on the owner is great.
On the other hand, there is a technique for reducing the burden on the owner by mechanically reproducing the recorded words to be remembered.

  In addition, as a conventional technology, a sensor that senses that a recording device and a pet are stuck on a small bird-shaped toy, and a puppeteer's action that gets up, can learn the words specified by the owner without getting bored of birds that imitate the words There is a recording / playback device for birds (Patent Document 1) having a function.

Furthermore, as a conventional technique, there is an automatic scoring device for bird call imitation (Patent Document 2) that determines the similarity between a bird call and a human voice that imitates it.
Further, there is an automatic feeding device (Patent Document 3) in which food is automatically discharged from the feeding device as a reward when the domestic dog does not emit a sound larger than a predetermined volume for a certain period of time.

JP2002-142602 JP-A-9-90979 JP2007-82488

  However, the device of Patent Document 1 only allows the bird that imitates the word to hear the word designated by the owner unilaterally, and does not have a function to evaluate how accurately the voice emitted by the bird imitates the word. . In addition, it was thought that the birds that imitated the words would get tired because of the awkward movement using the Hobo, so there was a problem that the loneliness and stress of the single body could not be resolved and the learning was hindered .

Further, in the disclosed device of Patent Document 2, it is possible to compare the voice information imitating a bird call and the pre-registered bird call sound information and order which registered data is similar. The accuracy of cannot be grasped. For this reason, the results cannot be fed back to bird utterance training that mimics human language and directed to utter more accurate words.
Furthermore, the apparatus of Patent Document 3 has a problem that the owner's evaluation is whether or not the dog barks, and the degree of coincidence between the pre-registered word and the voice uttered by the bird side imitating the word is not evaluated.

  The present invention eliminates the loneliness and stress of birds in the absence of the owner, reduces obstacles in the training environment that imitates the language, evaluates the accuracy of the imitated word during the training process, and reflects the results in feeding The challenge is to increase the effectiveness of speech training.

The inventor considered that it was possible to judge whether or not a specified word was uttered by using speech analysis technology and to specifically evaluate the accuracy of the uttered word. At the time of voice recognition, the frequency of the voice of a bird that imitates a word varies depending on the type and the individual, and therefore may not match the frequency of the owner's voice. However, generally used speech recognition technology calculates the degree of coincidence between a human word and a word imitating a bird in order to match language features such as phonemes and syllables by frequency analysis using an HMM model. It is possible.
In addition, we thought that by creating a small bird-type pseudo robot with a built-in recording device and taking the interactive form, the loneliness and stress during the absence of the owner can be resolved. In addition, the bird-type pseudo robot uses an ultrasonic sensor to show the interest of birds mimicking the words, and when it approaches, it can be exercised in a short period of time when interest continues. it can.

The control device will be described in detail below.
The control device is configured by means for controlling the feeding device 2 and the small bird-type pseudo robot 1. The means for controlling the feeding device 2 performs voice analysis and opening and closing of the valve 20. In addition, the means for controlling the small bird-type pseudo robot 1 performs an operation simulating a bird that imitates a word.

The means for controlling the small bird-type simulated robot 1 determines the overall movement, the body movement, the neck movement, and the execution time. When the ultrasonic sensor 14 on the chest of the small bird-type simulated robot 1 senses within 5 cm that it can be determined that there is a bird imitating a word nearby, the entire operation is determined and the execution time is determined. Further, it is considered that the error of the output value can be reduced by measuring the value of the ultrasonic sensor 100 times and calculating the median value.
To determine the overall movement, random numbers 0, 1, and 2 are generated to determine how to execute the body movement determination and the neck movement determination described above. 0 is a random number for determining and executing the body motion, 1 is a random number for determining and executing the neck motion, and 2 is a random number for determining the body motion and determining the neck motion and executing. Next, each operation is executed by the generated random number.
The body motion is determined by the whole body moving by the motor 13A built in the base of the foot of the small bird-type pseudo robot 1. First, in order to determine the movement angle of the body, a random number is generated so as to operate at 0 degree or more and 90 degrees or less in the forward tilt direction. Next, the generated random number is executed.
The determination of the movement of the neck is made by moving the head by the motor 13B built in the neck portion of the small bird-type pseudo robot 1. First, in order to determine the movement direction of the neck, a random number is generated as to whether to move left or right. When the random number result is A, the operation direction is the left direction, and when the random number result is B, the operation direction is the right direction. Next, a random number is generated so as to operate at 0 to 180 degrees in order to determine the neck operating angle. Finally, the random number generated by the neck movement angle and movement direction is executed.
The determination of the execution time is a time for performing a series of operations generated in the determination of the entire operation. First, in order to determine the execution time, a random number is generated so as to operate in 1 second or more and 5 seconds or less. Next, the random number generated at the execution time is executed.
If the bird is still near after the end of the series of operations, the entire procedure for determining the entire operation is repeated in a few seconds after the end of the operation.

[Operation example]
The following random numbers are generated by the control device.
A random number 0 that determines the overall movement, a random number 62 degrees that determines the angle in the forward tilt direction, and an execution time of 2 seconds. In this example, it operates 62 degrees in the forward tilt direction in 2 seconds.
Random number 1 that determines the overall movement, random number A that determines the movement direction of the neck, random number 180 degrees that determines the movement angle, execution time 4 seconds. In this example, the neck moves 180 degrees in the left direction in 4 seconds.
Random number 2 that determines the overall motion, 21 degrees random number that determines the angle of the forward tilt direction, random number B that determines the motion direction of the neck, 46 degrees of motion angle, execution time 5 seconds In this example, the forward tilt direction in 5 seconds 21 degrees and the neck moves 46 degrees to the right.
Note that the motion of the body with the random number 2 that determines the overall motion and the motion of the neck are performed simultaneously.

The means for controlling the feeding device 2 performs analysis of the owner's voice, analysis of the voice of a bird that imitates a word, comparison of the voice, and resetting. Moreover, the audio | voice analysis in the feeding apparatus 2 shall extract an audio | voice feature-value with respect to audio | voice information. For the recognition model, for example, a means having a high ability to analyze Japanese continuous speech, such as the HMM method, is introduced.
For the analysis of the owner's voice, voice information of the owner's words, which becomes a reference at the time of recording, is collected, voice features are extracted, a model is constructed, and the control board 8B is stored. Further, the words that should be imitated by the bird are stored in the control board 8B.
The analysis of the voice of a bird that imitates a word is performed when the bird imitating a word utters a voice, and the voice data is transmitted from the small bird-type pseudo robot 1 and the voice analysis similar to the analysis of the owner's voice is performed. To extract.
The voice comparison is based on the analysis of the voice of the bird that imitates the words, and the analysis of the voice of the bird that imitates the words and the analysis of the voice of the bird that imitates the words. Compare analysis results. The motor (13A, 13B) is rotated in accordance with the degree of coincidence to open the valve 20 that opens and closes the bait discharge part 22. If the degree of coincidence is low, the amount of food discharged is set to be small, and if the degree of coincidence is high, the amount of food discharged is set to be large. When the irrelevant voice is generated, the bait is not discharged when the degree of matching is lower than a predetermined value. Here, it is considered that by changing the opening time of the valve 20 that opens and closes the bait discharge part 22 according to the degree of coincidence, the bird that imitates the word will emit more accurate voice to obtain more bait. The effect of the invention can be expected.
The same effect can be expected by controlling the bait discharge amount to be a constant amount when the degree of coincidence is higher than a predetermined value and zero when it is low.
When the analysis result saved by the owner's voice analysis is to be deleted, such as when a new analysis is desired, the analysis result is deleted when the reset button 27 is pressed. After erasure, it waits for transmission from the bird-type pseudo robot 1 and returns to the analysis of the owner's voice.
