The Temptations Lab has developed "Catterbox". This is the world's first "speaking" cat color. It translates (?) The cat's bark into human language.


The lab thoroughly analyzes the barking of cats and classifies them into several types. Each was translated into human language (English) such as "hello," "delicious," "this, eat," and "feel good."


"Catterbox" is a cat color that commercialized this research. It has a built-in microphone and catches the barking of cats. It is a mechanism to select and play human words that are perfect for the bark from the recorded files.



The Temptations Lab has a video of the current prototype. However, even if you watch the video, you cannot honestly judge how accurate the translation is. Also, very unfortunately, the recorded audio does not match the cat's bark. Cats are crying with a cute voice, but human voices are not so cute.


The Temptations Lab has launched prototypes of the "Catterbox" in the US and New Zealand and is testing them. The company hopes to improve the accuracy of interpretation by having it widely used.


If you ship it in Japan, I would like you to speak with a more cute voice.


If you are worried about the "not cute" voice, check out the next video. Unfortunately, many people may feel like they are talking to an old man rather than a cat when they speak with this voice.
