| General | ABOUT PLEO:
What is Pleo?
Pleo is a new, autonomous toy that interacts with users and its environment. Pleo is an innovation in toys, offering a new experience unlike any other toy. It is a baby Camarasaurus, which arrived in the Jurassic Period 150 million years ago...but now appears to be arriving in stores!
UGOBE, the producer of Pleo, says "each one begins life as a newly-hatched baby Camarasaurus, but that's where predictability ends and individuality begins. Like any creature, Pleo feels hunger and fatigue - offset by powerful urges to explore and be nurtured. He'll graze, nap and toddle about on his own -when he feels like it! Pleo dinosaur can change his mind and his mood, just as you do."
This toy has been in production for quite some time and highly anticipated by consumers. It can only be ordered through select locations. It is not intended for children under the age of 8 years old.
Pleo progresses in "age" as you play with him. When he first "hatches" (or arrives to you from the store), Pleo is a hatchling, then, progresses into a juvenile dinosaur. Pleo has different stages in its life, and the first time he is turned on, he will interact as if just hatching! As Pleo progresses, he will begin to express himself through noises, ask to be fed, and explore his environment.
After a while of playing with Pleo, he will be in his Juvenile stage, where he will exhibit full range of his motion and new behaviors will be displayed. He will be alert and inquisitive, playful and emotional. Pleo is a baby dinosaur and will show all of the emotions you would expect from a baby dinosaur just born!
You can touch, talk to, listen to and care for Pleo as you would anything else. Pleo will include a user's guide for full information on care and instructions for use. Pleo will include a rechargeable battery for use.
Pleo does not talk, but makes "dinosaur sounds" trying to communicate or express his feelings at the time. He may be hungry, tired, lonely, playful...this is very interactive!
Pleo would make an excellent gift for the holiday season and will be sure to be a hit.
What are Pleo’s life stages?
Pleo has three life stages: birthing, hatchling, and juvenile. In each successive life stage he exhibits more complex and unique behavior.
Birthing Stage
Average Duration: 5 to 10 minutes
Pleo opens his eyes for the first time and acclimates to his surroundings. His movements are slow and he is largely unresponsive. With petting and encouragement, Pleo will become fully awake and stand up on his feet. The more Pleo is nurtured during the birthing stage, the faster he will develop and gain confidence.
Hatchling Stage
Average Duration: About 45 minutes
Over the remainder of his first charge, Pleo will learn to express himself — showing his feelings and emotion through his behavior. Pleo will be very talkative, walk around and explore his environment, ask for food, and nap like a baby.
Juvenile
Average Duration: 2nd charge and beyond
Pleo exhibits his full range of behavior and movement. Pleo will show his unique personality, using his body and face to convey his emotions in a familiar and understandable way. He'll also showcase his capacity to learn new tricks.
What tricks can Pleo learn?
Pleo's comes with a wide variety of built-in tricks, initially based on pre-programmed animations. You'll need to train Pleo to do these tricks by encouraging him with treats.
If you're not satisfied with Pleo's built-in tricks, you can program new animations yourself.
Pleo standard tricks include:
Sneeze
Bark in the Air
Sit
Lie down
Bow down
Crouch
Rear up
Stretch
Stand on diagonal legs
Catch a cold
Beg for food
Limp
YOU CAN ALSO HAVE PLEO PERFORM SKITS:
What is a PLEO skit? Skits are things such as dances, tricks, leg waves, tail wagging, etc...
Generally, anything PLEO does other than walking is a skit. Skits control PLEO's body movement & sound.
MySkit runs on your PC (not PLEO). Use it to create custom PLEO dances & performances. There are many features, effects, and safe-guards to make editing easy. MySkit directly supports initializing SD flash cards using a card reader. Anyone familiar with Skitter should feel right at home.
MySkit works on Windows 98, 2000, XP & Vista. It uses OpenGL for drawing a 3D PLEO preview. A fast machine is not required for simple editing. However, for simulated playback a fast machine (800 Mhz+ CPU) with a 3D graphics card is recommended.
Pleo is the Readers' Choice AND Editor's Choice winner of "Robot of the Year" on Engadget.

About me:
I work for a company called UGOBE, Inc.
What began as an informal group of creative designers and engineers became the corporation now known as UGOBE Life Forms™. UGOBE™'s multidisciplinary team has blended engineering, life sciences, philosophy, and artistic design and developed a unique set of core technologies. The company's unique products, known as Life Forms, intend to blur the line between technology and life. By integrating three disciplines-organic articulation with sensory response and autonomous behaviors-UGOBE aims to revolutionize robotics and transform inanimate objects into lifelike creatures. Inspired by its dream, the group coined the word 'UGOBE', which translates to: "You! Go and be!" a creative reworking of Descarte's "Cogito ergo sum"-"I think, therefore I am."
The company's vision is to inspire mystery and awe in people, provide extended novelty and entertainment, and ride the edge between popular culture and science fiction. In a private R&D facility, UGOBE works to re-create known species, engineer beneficial hybrids, and transform previously inanimate objects into lifelike creatures using its Life OS platform. UGOBE is in the business of developing unique propriety and patent-pending technologies. UGOBE innovations are leading to real world applications and are related to work being done at MIT, CMU and a host of other universities, as well as technical and biological science companies around the world.
UGOBE is a privately-held company based in Emeryville, Calif.
