gone, says he, she is the family's grief spot. but as it had look, i've been, i want to give you all moral support to be strong so that the souls of those children can have a sense of relief in young that their families will remain strong and be able to move forward and come up with a by with human rights and bears a 3 day morning beat. it has begun thought a community in grief and shock. left it for now. you're watching d. w. news. stay with us with an interest the global economy, our portfolio d w. business. beyond here, the closer look at the project, our mission. to analyze the fight for market dominance. good is still the head

with d w. business beyond a vibrant habitat ended glistening place of longing. the mediterranean sea scene of l muster and jaffar abdul karim drift, along with exploring modern lifestyles and the mediterranean, he's ready to leave journey this week on d. w. i may i introduce my black lab bus it at home, dogs, i my passion, but at work a passion. now robot. what if i combined the 2 could a robot replace my dog? let's see. all that and more on shift. ah shoot.

would you like a dog, but perhaps your landlord doesn't allow pads or you're allergic. why not get a robo dog? sounds weird. not in japan. i by looks pretty cute, but it's much more than just a ty behind those big eyes and multiple cameras. voicemail cognition, software untouched senses. i was short for artificial intelligence, private and in japanese. it means partner. artificial intelligence lets i by may vote honestly and make spontaneous decisions. the robotic dog was designed to be a serious alternative to a living breathing pat. gimme the obviously they're not living creatures of their robots. but many of our clients who keep i bought, whom treat it like a real patently when you to our customers ruble patch can feel very, really, and even evoke feelings of attachment. you know, just like real animals,

the design seems to be whacking each year at the she chico sounds, children's festival. some owners bring ivers, not children to the shrine, to pray for their health and good fortune. that rober dogs can even receive as though to funeral. these ceremonies a health to say good bye to i both the to be on repair. but the good news is i bose, a practically a mortal than memories live on in the cloud. they do look adorable, but could you imagine loving a piece of plastic? i went to japan to put eyeball to the test. bossa versus i bo, who's the better dog. i'm going to pick eyeball against my, the faucet in 5 categories. godliness, alto, factor, cleanliness, character and expenses. oh, codley miss. i have just one question was not to like about dogs, and

a lot of them love hawks. live on the other hand is very delicate and is more sensitive than i would have imagined. countless senses making respond to touch immediately. there really you, i have to admit her. i was impressed. let's call it a draw. oh, next the outdoor factor. bossa loves the beach. i bo probably wouldn't survive the sand. dasa love swimming eyeball wouldn't survive that either. wow. in fact, eyeball is design strictly for indoor use. so if you're not a fan of exercise, eyeball might be quite appealing. i have to walk my dog for about 2 hours every day to me, that's a clear win for bossa. oh, the 3rd category is personality. my dog has a great personality which i'm

a bit proud of. my friends you make fun of me for that. i bos don't really ever personality, right? they're just machines all exactly the same coin that i bought. any i bought that you buy will develop in a different way depending on the surroundings and the users lifestyle. i, all i boss will go their own way is i know if they will act differently, like, and feel differently, ethically will alight. that is made possible by a i and deep learning. eyeball also features, facial and voice recognition software that, that's recognized the person it's interacting with. it's more willing to respond to commands if that person has already spent time with it. impressive, idle can learn new tricks with software updates. i can teach boston new tricks to it might taken in longer, but it's still a lot of fun. i'd say one point each. oh,

next up cleanliness, my am i showing you this? because if i didn't show a bossa once a week, my apartment would be a mess. and don't get me started on all that hair on the floor. i bow scores. oh, finally, expenses. while eyeball comes with a hefty price take of around $2700.00 euros, a labrador pup cost about $1700.00 yours. and what about the monthly cost? sony charges about $20.00 euros a month for access to the cloud. where can download all of i bos, features hungry, hungry bossa eats up about 40 years of my monthly budget. and veterinary bills can add up to more than $500.00 euros a year. and the grand score is 4234. i believe. congratulations, i bo, but i'm still not sure if i could bond with the machine. these robotic dogs are a different story. they've got

a bad reputation. that could be thanks to dystopian sy fi works like these. and then there's the so called defense industry that fits dog like rovers with a tillery ranging over one kilometer support us believe these robots will improve security in the future if you say, so, one thing is for sure they can do dangerous jobs. folk is exploring a drug lab, harmful chemicals could be in the air, and armed criminals could be hiding in the shadows. this replica of a lab demonstrates how dodge police put their i bow dogs to work a mounted camera. let's officers observe what is happening at the crime scene from a safe distance. spot is remote controlled. it is not meant to be autonomous. it's job is to protect police officers from dangerous situations. no, i understand that pupils often scare people, so my volunteers, but the way we see it on this,

on all these rebuts do is bring sensors to location that would be dangerous for us cancer. and then come back with data alika variable. take dogs can be equipped with a number of different senses that let them measure things such as radioactivity. for example, companies have already tested models and a decommissioned nuclear plant in british sellafield. this kid enable inspections that don't expose humans to the risk of nuclear contamination. robotic dogs are being put to the test around the globe in italy, spots, and it's $360.00 degree camera patrol, the antique ruins of pompei each night. in spain, it serves drinks in singapore, it gods, construction sites. it's no coincidence that similar experiments are being conducted a mr. pandemic as many sectors struggle to stop their teams, actually replacing the need for manpower on site with autonomous solutions is

grainy gaining real traction in the industry. these robots can take over dog dirty or dangerous jobs, but they also have caring tasks like this. this is of a dog designed by a leading chinese ai and robotics firm. walks and play time included, the design to entertain support and even got us. but do we want robots doing that? the honolulu police on hawaii tick spots for a practice run when they deployed the canaan robot to check the temperatures of on house people during the height of the corona virus pandemic. critics warned this was dehumanizing visitors to this park and seeing a poor responded with mixed emotions. when a robo dog was sent out to ensure that people maintain safe distance, said that it was it's cameras and artificial intelligence record the number of people. i think it's quite light, like the black mirror,

kind of like we're always under surveillance l times. i think it's pretty cool if you keep the sense that, you know, someone is looking around just to make sure that people around us, hey, this mike, look more like a giraffe than a dog, but spots mucus iteration has been equipped with a gripping are right now the robots just sensing the world, but the moment that i can sense the well and interact with it based on wednesday that starts opening up wide variety new applications for, for spot, with so many uses. we have lots to look forward to, by the way. spot has proven that is god moves like jagger ah, ah, of fours promo videos like this unmade to go viral. but live dogs can also gain

social media pain. like this pomeranian def palm from the u. s. he has 10000000 followers on instagram. and another 20000000 on take talk. personally, i'm not a fan of dressing up dogs like humans. i prefer on the dogs, such as these 2 former street dogs in rio de janeiro. both i'll have for ever homes and good jobs. carmella joined the fire department and corporal olvera is with the police. there is the fame helps raise awareness, or example for others street dogs of war works in asia campaigns. i wonder if dogs would use social media on their own. ilya and i heard you, douglas believes they certainly need more self determination. so she developed a dock form i at the scottish university of glasgow. you'll, you know,

her ski douglas investigates her animals interact with computers. in 2021. she developed a doggy food for her lab. zack, to lot of products coming to market that allow you to video, call your animal or track your animal am, but you are a, your dog or, you know, doesn't really have many choices over this technology. and so i thought would be wonderful if we sort of flip the narrative of this. and instead of dog could make a video call rather than a human calling them and also choose whether or not it wants to answer the calls. but how do you teach a dog to make a phone call. ready is una husky. douglas took advantage of the fact that zach would often bring her a bowl if he wanted attention. what i did was on the inside an how's inside this tennis ball inside the tennis ball is just an accelerator and also a chip and is the battery and some, some other technology that basically connects with ball and to my computer or his computer at home. her lap doesn't like picking up the phone,

but he does like making calls himself his favorite or video calls were her ski douglas can show him where she is. the experiment will continue for 2 weeks and then it's back to the drawing board. i guess i have like a super big dream in animal technology. i would really like it if we started developing technology that give animals more control over their life. and so my sort of end goal of this is to really make technology that really improves in animal life and really improve the welfare. i'm all for technology, improving the lives of our parents. why should humors have all the benefits, but take to the start of our show, robert not like able a more than just a toy. they are useful companions that can help combat loneliness. for example, that's scientifically proven. is that a series solution? euclid profit form, or is it just fun and games? let us know. that's all from us. so you next time. ah,
