Project #5 Artificial Companion

In this project, I create an AI companion represented as a hamster.

Design Process

Storyboard

What I want to gain from Buzz: I want to be respected; I want to be appreciated; I want to spend my sympathy on it; What Buzz can do: Make noise like a hamster; Eat like a pig; Poop after feeding; Drink; Sleep around his house for 10 hours a day (during day time); Feel hungry; Feel thirsty; Wake up when I approach with food; React cuddly if he is satisfied / React distance if he is unsatisfied.

What Buzz cannot do: Talk in human language; Make babies; Be smart; Play tricks like a trained pet; Stink; Die.
