Kitty the Robotic Kitten Operating Manual
Kitty is an authentic robot that does everything a real kitty can do…and more! She can walk, "meow", talk, cr y,
move her tail, look around, and display a wide range of emot ions. With your help, she can be taught to perform
amazing tricks!
Thanks to her artif icial int elligence program, (and a few purrs and m eows!), Kitty will let you know how she is
feeling and provide feedback on the car e you provide. Kit t y k nows how long it’s been since she’s been fed and
is quick to remind you when she is need of some attention. Like a real cat, she goes to sleep several times a
day when left alone!
Kitty has state-of-the-art sensors that allow her to "see" and "hear" and even "feel" your touch. With these
sensors and Kitty’s powerful computer brain, Kitty can determine if it is getting dark, if the lights in the house
suddenly turn on, if someone’s talking to her, if there is a loud noise (like a knock at the door) - and even if
you're petting her on her back!
Kitty can also walk fast or slow depending on how she feels. If she is just looking for adventure, she will walk at
a normal pace. If she is excited or scared, Kit ty will walk faster. In short, Kitty is programmed to respond just
like a real 8-week-old "kitt y cat"!
Understanding Kitty
By the following instructions in this manual (or using the web site http://www.kittyrobot.com/
) you will be able to
provide the best life possible for Kitt y… and lead to greater enjoyment in your new role as Cool Pet Owner.
1. Removing Kitty From The Package
Kitty is held in place by several plastic straps and two plastic columns under her belly. Carefully remove all the
plastic straps. Pull the two plastic latches out from each of t he colum ns
(Fig. 1)
. Turn Kitty upside down and
notice that there is a thumbscrew of each of the columns still attached. Unscrew them and save them if you
want to reuse the package as a carry case. Save Kitty’s Fish Treat and her Place Mat (counting trick) in a safe
place.
2. Initial Set Up
After Kitty is free from the package, pull the Tab out of her side to begin her program set up. Turn the On/ Off
switch off and then on again. When you hear a "beep" it means Kitty has come to life!
3. Understanding Kitty’s Programming
Kitty uses the latest in artificial intelligence software. She has the intellect of an 8-week-old kitten. Kittens aren’t
perfect and, from t im e to time, she may have a mind of her own. Sometimes Kitty will respond to your
commands, and other times she will do what she wants to do. It all depends on how she feels and how you are
trying to communicate with her.
Like all kittens, Kitty loves attent ion. Yell out her name and clap your hands to let her know you’re there. Pat
her on the head or pet her on the back when she is good. Feed her r egularly. Change her batteries when she
stops working. Just think of her as a real kitten and she will be your friend f or life!
4.Kitty’s Sensor And Touch Inputs
To understand how Kitty words you must know about her input devices.
(Fig.2)
Located between her eyes under the protective lens, Kitty’s
LIGHT SENSOR
responds to changes in light
levels.
The
SOUND SENSOR
in Kitty’s head allow her to respond to voices and other noises.
When pressed, t he
MOUTH SENSOR
lets Kitty knows she is being fed. You’ll know she is enjoying her meal
when you hear her crunching and slurping.
The
NOSE SENSOR
has two purposes. When pressed, Kitty will make "sniffing” noises. Also, if she walks into
an object, this sensor will shut down her motor function t o keep her out of harm’s way. You’ll hear her say
"
OW!
"
Kitty’s
TOUCH SENSORS
let her know that she is being petted. T hese sensor are your way of letting Kitty
know how much affection you have for her. Please note the location of each sensor (A, B and C) which run
directly down the center of her back.
(Fig. 2)
When you strok e Kit t y down her back, she will become very
happy. Move your hand from t he back from
Sensor A
on the back of her down her back to
Sensor C (Fig. 3)
Try to touch her lightly - like you might a real cat. You will see that Kit ty will
PURR
and wiggle her tail. The
more you pet her, the more Kitty's purring you will hear from her.
The
MODE BUTTON
is used to program Kitty and teaching her t r icks.
Kitty powers up or shuts down when you move the
ON/OFF SWITCH
.
