Abstract

An interactive toy system and associated methodology provides entertaining stimuli based on real time audio content input sourced to a series of toys from an entertainment provider. The interactive toy system may be said to include a series of toy figures usable in combination with an audio-visual apparatus or device. The toy figures each include an ornamental housing and internal circuitry. The internal circuitry include a microphone for detecting audio input and software to govern certain computer functionality including audio file trigger identification, comparison, matching and audio file selection and delivery for playback at the toy figure in synchrony with the audio content sourced from the entertainment programming. The consumer may thus consume the entertainment programming while the toy figures simultaneously sing along in unison with certain audio content provided during the entertainment program. The toy figures may include animation to enhance the entertainment experience.
