Loona: the robot dog with GPT-4, a camera and voice control

Loona is a robot dog with GPT-4 technology, a 720p camera and voice control. It recognises faces and gestures, responds to voice commands and lets users remotely check on their home and communicate through the robot.

AI-powered communication

Loona uses GPT-4 to process natural language and communicate with users. Its language capabilities also include ChatGPT and Amazon Lex technologies. This allows the robot to process questions and more complex instructions, rather than just simple voice commands.

The device supports more than 10 languages. Before choosing it, check whether your preferred language is supported and review the terms for using each service.

Camera, gestures and voice commands

A 720p HD RGB camera helps Loona recognise faces and gestures around it. Combined with voice control, it allows users to interact with the robot without touching it. The camera also provides a view of the home during remote monitoring.

Image and voice recognition can be useful for entertainment and everyday interaction. Results may depend on surrounding conditions, such as lighting or background noise.

Processor and movement

Loona runs on a quad-core Cortex-A53 processor clocked at 1.5 GHz. It also has a BPU rated at 5 TOPS, a unit designed to accelerate AI tasks. This supports the processing of inputs, such as those used for image recognition.

Six DC servomotors provide movement: four are in the body and two are at the wheels. They allow Loona to move and turn its head, so it can respond physically as well as through voice or images.

Remote home monitoring

Using the camera and speaker, owners can check on their home remotely and communicate through Loona. This can be useful, for example, for checking on the house or pets while away.

Loona is not a substitute for a security system or for personally caring for a household member. When using its camera, also consider the privacy of people within its view.
