碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 機械工程系 === 102 === In recent years, due to the changes of population, family and social structure, more single people appear, seeking spiritual comfort and companionship, which makes the human needs of pets increase every year. Pet robots combine the advantages of both pets and intelligent robots, and it extends the different ages of interactive electronic toys. It will make the pet-type robots have great market potential and development space. Nowadays, pet robots, mostly are land-based and less for underwater types. This study uses the concept of smart devices APP and develope the interactive pet cuttlefish bionic robots. The study improve previous cuttlefish robot and devided into three parts: interactive mode, emotional performance, bionic performance. In interactive mode,user use smart device with speech recognition App to interact with the cuttlefish robot. In emotional performance, according to different emotional word, cuttlefish can perform corresponding behavior. There are four emotion such as happy, mad, sad, crazy. In bionic performance, we manufactured bionic cuttlefish skin to improve the appearance. We also improve the propulsion of the previous cuttlefish robot with different method. The components of the cuttlefish robot were designed by 3D CAD software, and manufactured by additive manufacturing technologies such as FDM and other technologies such as RT, hand-made model.The overall size of the cuttlefish robot is 195mm×115mm×78mm. All the parts are assembled and test underwater. The test results show that the cuttlefish robot can discriminate the statements given by user and make appropriate emotional behavior.
