A tech company asserts that it has developed a device capable of converting human speech into canine communication.
A business based in California named Traini is offering what it refers to as the ‘world’s first real-time human-dog communication collar’.
Videos uploaded to the company’s website demonstrate the device in use.
In another instance, a man asks an application on his phone: “Can you fetch me the remote?” The translator then converts those words intoAIbarks, at which the dog actually reacts.
Another depicts the pet licking a man’s face following the app translating the owner’s command: “Give me a kiss.”
The Traini website presents the tool as “the first pet behavioral AI in the world that reacts with empathy, designed to connect technology with the health of pets.”
Nevertheless, renowned dog trainer Sharon Bolt questions whether the app could ever evolve into a tool enabling people to engage in complete conversations with their cherished pets.
She told The SunWhen a dog vocalizes, various emotions can be expressed through high-pitched and deeper, rougher barks.
Higher indicates more anxiety or fear, whereas lower suggests greater confidence. You can see how an application could be capable of identifying these various emotions.
But I don’t understand the reasoning behind being able to have a conversation with it. You can teach a dog to fetch a remote. It might comprehend specific words like dinner or walkies. However, casual conversation, no.
