(scroll down for history)
The i-Cybie Story
Back in 1999 Sony released the first generation of it's robotic dog, Aibo which cost 2,500 dollars and sold out in 30 minutes.  After this, the race to make the greastest affordable robotic dog was on.  Silverlit Electronics came up with the original i-Cybie and planned to show it at the 2000 US international toy fair.  Tiger Electronics, who had been looking for a dog ever since sony released theirs, bought up i-Cybie before the show even began.  Tiger had originally planned to simply change the dogs head to have eyes, and said it would be released in July of 2000.  After looking at the dog they realized it needed more than a new head.  After nearly a year of fine tweaking they came up with the dog pictured above.  This dog was finally released in August 2001.  This is hardly the end of the story however.  Tiger, after poorly marketing the dog, dropped it soon after its release.  They never made any effort to advertise it to bring the sales up, and never made the accessories we were promised.  Tiger is now just a name under Hasbro, and not really a company (most of their stuff is on sale now, and discontinued, as well as most of their staff being laid off).  Silverlit got the rights to their dog back, and is now making accessories, over 2 years delayed now.  www.i-Cybie.com has the accessories now.  They include the downloading kit and charging port i-Cybie was originally designed for, as well as new shells to change your i-Cybies color.  This, is how the story ends.  It could have been different, if advertised it could have done better than aibo, with the right programming it could have actually been autonomous, but I guess we will need to wait for the next wave of robots to see what technology can really do.  Only time will tell...

pg 3 - WELCOME TO i-CYBIE'S WORLD 
Chapter 1

i-Cybie is the first TRUE robotic pet! This amazing little puppy is 
going to be
an entertaining part of your world. The 4-pound i-Cybie dog is made 
of 1,400
parts and over 90 feet of wire! There is a powerful artificial 
intelligence computer
and a bunch of smart buttons that allows this little character to do 
everything
but taste and smell. But, the truly incredible part of i-Cybie is the 
dog's
personality.

Your i-Cybie will respond to
things in your world with
canine-like moods. i-Cybie
does this by using some of
the same things that you use:
body, eyes, and voice. The dog
will express feelings with
signature actions, poses and
behaviors when interacting in
the world that the two of you
will create. Play with your new
i-Cybie and you'll have one
happy puppy. Ignore the dog
and just like you, i-Cybie will
become sad. i-Cybie comes
with a special remote control
and batteries, a battery charger
as well as a quick start guide.
And don't forget this manual..

SET UP
CHARGING THE BATTERY
Before you begin playing with i-Cybie, the NiCad battery needs to be
charged. To charge the battery, please follow these simple steps:
1. Connect the battery to the charge terminal.
2. Have an adult to plug the charger into a standard outlet.
2.
1..Note 1: It is very important to REMOVE the BATTERY when you are not
playing with i-Cybie otherwise the life span of the battery will
decrease and it WILL NOT recharge fully.
Note 2: If the battery door is open, i-Cybie's eyes will blink the 
pattern
orange + green, green + red, red + orange.
Note 3: If you place a low charged battery into the dog, he will not 
start
and will cry 3 times to indicate low battery.

i-CYBIE STRETCH
Since i-Cybie is a robot, from time to time the dog needs to do some
simple internal checks to make sure everything is working OK. i-Cybie
will do them automatically. If you see i-Cybie suddenly lay down and 
start
to move his legs and head in what seems to be a strange action, don't
worry, i-Cybie is just making sure that all of the systems are 
working fine.

I-Cybie says "I must excercise to keep in shape. I will do this 
every time you start me and when a fresh battery is put in. Make sure 
I have enough room and please let me finish."


pg 9 & 10
RE-CHARGE ME...PLEASE
i-Cybie will let you know when the battery is low. This smart dog 
will get
into a special "Re – Charge Me" position (see example below). Whenever
you see your i-Cybie in this position, remove the drained battery and
recharge it. (Charging the Battery: page 7 ) After the battery has 
been
re-charged and re-inserted, simply place i-Cybie back on the floor and
press the button on top of the head. Just like that…i-Cybie will 
resume
play where you left off!

DETAILS...DETAILS...
TO START i-CYBIE
Once you have the battery charged and installed, when you see i-
Cybie's
eye are green, all you have to do to start your i-Cybie is to press 
the head
button. There will be a brief internal test that i-Cybie will do 
before he can
get going. It is similar to how you may stretch after you wake up in 
the
morning! i-Cybie will wake-up with green eyes lit, moving the head up
and down, wagging the tail once and giving you a short bark "Hello"!
When the internal test is complete, i-Cybie is good to go and ready to
play!

I-Cybie says "I-Cybie is a state-of-the-art electro-mechanical, 
robot toy. The mechanical sound you hear when I-Cybie moves is 
normal."

When you play with your new pet, there are 4 ways to communicate with
i-Cybie. Each of these 4 ways will let you control all of i-Cybie's 
major
functions. This also will let you decide how you want to play with i-
Cybie.
While i-Cybie cruises around your home, the sensors on the dog will 
help
i-Cybie to try to stay out of trouble. But as with any other pet, you 
may
find that i-Cybie will sometimes get into trouble. If this happens, 
your help
will be needed (If i-Cybie Malfunctions: see Troubleshooting: page 
41).

Th e B a s i c s
SOUND COMMANDS
There are two types of SOUND Commands that your i-Cybie
is able to respond to: CLAP Commands and VOICE Commands.
• COME TO CLAP: When i-Cybie is not busy moving or not in
"Listen Mode", he will listen for your "COME TO CLAP"
command. He will turn his head to the direction of the clap and
WALK toward it. He can be "driven around" using this feature.
• CLAP Commands: When i-Cybie is in "Listen Mode"
(see page 17), making a series of handclaps, you can get your
i-Cybie to do different things. An example of this is 2 handclaps.
This will tell i-Cybie to SIT DOWN. There are 16 CLAP
commands for you and your i-Cybie in 

Chapter 7: page 27.
• VOICE Commands: When i-Cybie is in "Listen Mode", these
are commands that you can give by actually speaking to your
i-Cybie! An example of a VOICE command is actually telling
your i-Cybie to SIT. There are 8 VOICE commands
for you and your i-Cybie in Chapter 7: page 27.
Before i-Cybie arrived at your home. i-Cybie was taught
to respond to both COME TO CLAP and CLAP commands.
You do have the option of playing with your i-Cybie by using
CLAP commands or VOICE commands. You can communicate
with your i-Cybie using either.
SIT
THE REMOTE CONTROL
Your i-Cybie comes with a Remote Control! You can use this to play 
with
your i-Cybie. The following illustration shows the buttons on the 
Remote
Control and what they do:

Exit Advanced Play Mode
or Voice Training Mode or
Trick Mode.When you put i-Cybie in "Trick Mode" (see page 31) the dog 
will automatically
go into "Listen Mode" after each time a command is completed. If i-
Cybie
doesn't hear a command clearly enough to understand it, i-Cybie will 
let
you know. i-Cybie will do a "NO" headshake and have RED eyes. Your
i-Cybie will then go back to "Listen Mode" and have both eyes ORANGE.
Be sure to wait for your i-Cybie to have 2 ORANGE eyes before you give
another sound command.

I-Cybie says "Helpful hint: CLAP Commansa work well in noisier 
environments. Use VOICE commands in a quiet room with no music, tv, 
or conversations."

pg 17 & 18
Making i-Cybie listen for Sound Commands
When your i-Cybie is not busy and you want to do SOUND Commands,
just press and hold the "Head Button" for 3 seconds. i-Cybie will 
then go
into "Listen Mode" and both eyes will turn ORANGE. This will let you 
know
that i-Cybie is listening for a command from you. There are 8 basic
commands that you can give i-Cybie when using your voice or by 
clapping.
Giving i-Cybie Clap Commands
The following description will show how to give CLAP commands and
understand the symbols.
• The symbol * stands for "one clap" or sound. So,
* * means two claps.
• The symbol / stands for "pause"
• So, * * / * means "clap, clap, pause, clap"..VOICE COMMANDS
Making i-Cybie listen to Voice Command
To turn on VOICE Recognition Mode, press #10, #7, and then press the
large button while holding the remote close to i-Cybie's chest.
i-Cybie can only respond to VOICE Commands from the person that
trained him. For someone else to use this feature they must go back 
into
the "Advanced Play Mode", clear out the old voice and re-train i-
Cybie.
This is done by the following sequence on the Remote Control #10, #9
then Large Button, #9 then Large Button.
Once you have gotten i-Cybie into "Voice Recognition Mode",
you then have to teach i-Cybie the Voice Commands.

I-Cybie says "Whenever you use the clap commands, I-CYbie will 
repeat back clap commands with a series of short barks so you'll know 
if the dog understands."


pg 19 & 20
Training i-Cybie to recognize your voice
When training i-Cybie to respond to Voice Commands use the Remote
Control.
Be patient, speak very clearly, not too quietly, and write down the 
words
you teach i-Cybie. Don't forget what you tell him!.2. Press the 
corresponding Remote Control Button to
the action that you want to voice train and wait for both
eyes to turn ORANGE. When they are both
ORANGE say the word once clearly and wait for the
eyes to change color. There are 8 different VOICE
Commands that you will be programming i-Cybie to
recognize. Each button, #1 through #8, is assigned a
different action( page 23 ). To train i-Cybie to recognize
your voice you will need to go through them ONE at a
time. Also, the word that you train i-Cybie to recognize
is your choice. You can either use the word that
corresponds to the action, as shown below, or you can
make-up your own word or phrase! But i-Cybie reaction
to the word will remain the same.
1. Press remote button #11 to enter VOICE Command
training mode. The eye pattern will show it is ready
(Left Green On). (you must always hold the remote
close to i-Cybie's chest)
3. After hearing the voice, the system will
do the training. If it is ok, then both of
the eyes will turn green. If it fails, one
eye will be red and one eye will be green.
4. To train the next word, move to the next
button and repeat steps 2 & 3.
Every single button from #1 - #8 must be trained
for the VOICE Recongnition to function
5. To EXIT VOICE training press #12 on the Remote Control.

I-Cybie Says "You will hear beeps after each button is pressed 
and I-Cybie will give a short bark after a correct code has been 
entered."

Using Voice Commands with i-Cybie:
Now that you have trained i-Cybie to respond to VOICE Commands, there 
are
a few important things to remember:
1. i-Cybie must be listening for a VOICE
Command in order to follow the
command. To get i-Cybie to listen for
a VOICE Command, press and hold
the head button for 3 seconds.
i-Cybie's eyes will then turn orange to
show you that he is in "Listen Mode".
2. Once i-Cybie is listening to you, you must give the command in a 
clear voice.
It is best to be between 1 and 3 feet away from i-Cybie while giving 
commands.

I-Cybie says "All words must be trained twice to work properly. 
The first time the word is trained I-Cybie will indicate an error 
(one eye green, one eye red) meaning more training is necessary. If 
after two tried the eyes have not both turned greed try it again and 
this time speak a little louder and more clearly. Also make sure 
there isn't very much background noise. After all 8 words are 
trained; I-Cybie will give a short bark to let you know the training 
was a success."


pg 23 & 24
3 feet
Good
dog!

**Important Notice**
If you want to re-train i-Cybie's VOICE Commands to recognize your
voice and not someone else's, you MUST first clear the previous voice
training. This can only be done in "Advanced Play Mode" with the 99
code. This is done by the following sequence on the Remote Control
"#10, #9 then Large Button, #9 then Large Button.
Note: you will hear a beep after every time you press a button.
When you are done, i-Cybie will BARK.
Once you have trained i-Cybie to respond to VOICE Commands, he will
not forget the training unless you go in the "Advanced Play Mode" and
erase his memory (even if you reset him or turn him off).


pg 25 & 26
3. It is important that the room be fairly quiet for i-Cybie. If you 
try and
give i-Cybie VOICE Commands in a room with a lot of noise, the dog
will not be able to listen well and will not respond to the commands 
you
are giving. You will be able to learn through trial and error to know 
how
quiet a room should be for i-Cybie to be able to listen to you.
4) If i-Cybie does not understand a command that you give, he will 
shake
his head NO..

Chapter 7 
THE FUN STUFF...FINALLY
To do any of these actions with sound commands, i-Cybie MUST
be in "Listen Mode". To do this press the "Head Button" for 3 seconds.
i-Cybie will then go into "Listen Mode" and have both eyes ORANGE.
This will let you know that i-Cybie is listening for a command from
you.
When i-Cybie is doing tricks, he becomes so involved that he
doesn't see objects around him. i-Cybie may bump into things
around him and get stuck. If i-Cybie gets stuck or jammed, he will
make his eyes blink alternatively green and red. If you see i-Cybie
this way first check to see if he is caught on some clothes or some
other obstacle, remove the obstacle and wait for a few seconds.
Then, he will automatically resume to play.

C A R I N G FOR i-CYBIE
PERSONALITY
Just like a real dog, i-Cybie likes to be petted and played with.
i-Cybie is still a robot dog, so of course, you do not need to feed
him or clean up after him!
It is very easy to care for i-Cybie; all you have to do is just play 
with
the dog! i-Cybie especially likes having his head petted. The dog
also likes to do tricks and will respond when you give commands.
When you are not playing with i-Cybie, the dog may want to explore.
i-Cybie will sometimes simply walk around a little and look for
someone to play with! If you do not play with i-Cybie for a while,
the dog is programmed to shut down and go to sleep.

i-Cybie's personality.THE EMOTIONAL SIDE
i-Cybie has 4 main emotions that will develop with play. These
emotions are Happy, Hyper, Sad, and Sleepy. The emotional state
of i-Cybie will change depending on where the dog is and his
interaction with people. Like a real dog, if you play with, touch and
talk to i-Cybie, the dog will become happy and will show this 
happiness
by tail wagging and showing a happy face. If you leave i-Cybie alone
(and there is room to move) the dog may become a little Hyper.
With the tail straight out and head forward, a hyper i-Cybie will rub
his bottom on the floor, roam, and dig until you play with the dog
again. i-Cybie may get sad if you don't play with him or if i-Cybie
does not have enough room to play (example: i-Cybie is in a confining
place). If i-Cybie is sad, the dog's head will be tilted down, and the
tail will drop in frustration. When i-Cybie is sad, the dog will let 
you
know by being less likely to listen to you and may even show sad
behavior by begging a lot. You can recognize a sleepy i-Cybie by
a drooped head and tail. A sleepy i-Cybie yawns, stretches and
sleeps a lot. If left in a sleepy mood for 10 minutes or 5 times
sleeping animation with "Snore" sound, i-Cybie will go into a deep
sleep. At this time, i-Cybie can only be awakened up by pressing
the "Head Button".

COMMUNICATING WITH OTHER i-CYBIES
(AND ALL ROBO-CHI PETS)
All i-Cybies love to talk to each other. If you and a friend have two 
or more
i-Cybies you can get them to talk to each other. You do this by 
facing them together
and at the most 3 feet apart for them to see each other. Give them a 
chance to
get to know each other and if they do not start talking to each 
other, try again.
This illustration shows where each i-Cybie needs to be located in 
order to
communicate with other dogs or Robo-Chi pets.
