Ai Pet-iMoochi

Ai Pet

ZTE Corporation

iMoochi is an AI-powered emotional companion designed to combat urban loneliness by offering life-like, embodied interactions. It features a soft, plush exterior combined with expressive eye movements, vocal feedback, and physical gestures like nodding and tail-wagging, creating an immersive companionship experience. With capabilities such as voiceprint recognition for "owner identification," autonomous emotion perception, and NFC-enabled app connectivity for mood logging, iMoochi bridges the gap between high-maintenance real pets and emotionally distant virtual ones, providing realistic emotional support with minimal upkeep.
