The AIBO
®
Entertainment Robot’s head angle
(angle of the AIBO robot’s color camera)
You can use commands in the AIBO MAIL to set the vertical
and horizontal positioning of the AIBO robot’s head (color
camera) when having it take a picture.
You cannot change the AIBO robot’s head angle when using
a voice command to take a picture. The AIBO robot will
look straight ahead and take the picture.
Taking pictures on command
You can tell the AIBO robot to take a picture using the AIBO
MAIL command. Upon receiving this e-mail, the AIBO
robot will take a single picture.
Note
The AIBO robot will check the e-mail server for e-mail at the
desired interval that you initially set (page 26). When it
acknowledges receipt of an AIBO MAIL with a photo command, it
will take a picture.
The command that you use in your AIBO MAIL body text
for the AIBO robot to take a picture and e-mail it back as a
JPEG attachment is: PHOTO or PHOTOL*.
* Because of the large size of images taken with PHOTOL, it is
best used when sending images to a computer.
Note
For instructions on viewing the pictures taken by the AIBO robot
with your Web browser, refer to page 18.
Receiving pictures as e-mail attachments
with the [PHOTO command] [PHOTOL
command]
The AIBO robot will e-mail back the picture it took as a
JPEG attachment.
* PHOTO: Sends a picture in standard resolution (208 × 160
pixels).
PHOTOL: Sends a picture in high resolution (416 × 320 pixels).
