Abstract
A character good suitable for entertainment and/or educational purposes is disclosed. The character good includes one or more audio and/or video input generation devices that operate to generate audio and/or video inputs responsive to audio sensed and/or scenes observed in the character good's surrounding, to provide the character good with simulated listening and/or visual ability. The generated audio and/or video input signals are forwarded to an external computer for processing. The character good further includes one or more audio and/or electromechanical devices that operate to manifest audio and/or gesture responses under the control of the external computer, to provide the character good with simulated speech and/or gesture ability. The external computer exercises the control responsive to the generated audio and/or video inputs. In one embodiment, the character good also includes a body having an exterior cover that operates to provide a facade for the character good and houses the audio and/or video input generation devices as well as the audio and/or electromechanical output devices.
