If it’s appropriately labeled with an RFID tag, the bionic dog Sniff will be able to distinguish it and respond to it. Created by students from the Oslo School of Architecture and Design, Sniff is a digital doggie concept that uses wireless technology to vibrate and make noise in reaction to objects Sniff ‘sniffs.'
While he looks like a cute, cuddly toy, the bionic dog Sniff was designed as a companion for children with sight impairment since it is based on the non-visual senses like touch and sound.
