Allison 2,369 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 From ABC News: "What if your dog could greet you with more than a growl, or announce the reason he's scratching at the door? It sounds absurd and much like the storyline from the Pixar film, “Up,” but Scandinavian scientists are working to develop a headset that could soon allow your furry best friend to speak his mind. The Nordic Society for Invention and Discovery is the brains behind “No More Woof” -- technology that aims to distinguish canine thought patterns and then issue them as short sentences via a microphone."

miz molly 1,800 Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I knew Gary Larson probably came up with the idea long before inventors. The visual of man walking with dog, both wearing their communicating head gear Another first cup of coffee belly laugh. Thanks Mr. B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Allison 2,369 Posted February 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 So glad you said this. I thought, "hey, hey, hey, milk bone, milk bone, milk bone,..." Not sure I want to hear a computer generated voice saying what I already know they are saying. "ball, ball, ball,..." "Timmy hurt?" "Arf arf (yes follow me)" I will believe it when I see/hear it. I notice there were no demonstrations. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
