Description
- This application claims priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/774,388 filed Feb. 17, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention relates generally to an interactive toy. More specifically, the invention relates to an interactive toy that responds to questions by randomly selecting one of a set of pre-programmed answers.
- A toy that simulates interaction with an individual by appearing to respond to input from the individual can be desirable to children and adults. In addition, toys that provide an answer to a question proposed to the toy have been found to be entertaining to users. For example, the well known “Crystal 8 Ball” that allows a user to shake the toy and wait for an answer on the side of a cube to become visible through a transparent window is commonly known. However, a relatively inexpensive toy that responds to a verbal question by a user with an audible answer is not currently available. Such a toy, being entertaining for an individual and/or a group of individuals, would be desirable.
- Disclosed is an interactive toy for providing an audible response to an initial audio signal. The toy is comprised of a housing, a microphone, a controller having speech circuitry and Mask ROM memory, and a speaker. The housing can be in the form of a human figurine and the toy can include an on/off switch which allows for the energizing or de-energizing of the toy. The controller is preferably a microprocessor. In addition, the controller is operable to run in different modes, for example a demo mode and a play mode. The microphone can receive an audio signal from a user and relay the audio signal to the controller. The audio signal can be in the form of a verbal question provided by the user. The controller receives the audio signal from the microphone and selects a message stored in the Mask ROM memory and provides the message to the speaker. The speaker transmits the message to the user in an audible form.

- The interactive toy of the present invention includes a housing, with the housing containing a microphone, a controller having speech circuitry and Mask ROM memory, and a speaker. The housing can be in the form of a human figurine and take several forms.
- Turning to
FIG. 1 , one embodiment of the present invention in the form of a fortune teller with the name Madame Seemore is illustrated. Theembodiment 50 shown inFIG. 1 includes ahousing 40, an on/offswitch 52, aname tag 54 and abase 56. Other embodiments of the present invention are shown inFIGS. 2-4 wherein the housing takes the form of a personal therapist, teen advisors and a business advisor, respectively. As shown in these figures, various external forms limited only by the imagination of the inventor, fall within the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, additional features to thehousing 40 can be included, such as thebooth 42 shown inFIG. 1 , the couch 44 shown inFIG. 2 , the additionalhuman figurine 46 shown inFIG. 3 and thewater cooler 48 shown inFIG. 4 - Each of the examples shown in
FIGS. 1-4 are operable to provide a number of randomly selected answers to an audio signal afforded by a microphone, controller and speaker as illustrated in the circuit diagram shown inFIG. 5 . The microphone 16 is connected to the speech circuitry 12 and themicroprocessor 14. The Mask ROM memory is included within and/or is onboard themicroprocessor 14. Upon receiving an audio signal, for example in the form of a verbal statement and/or question, the microphone 16 receives said signal and transmits said signal to themicroprocessor 14. In operation, a microcontroller unit monitors the output of the microphone 16 and upon receiving an audio signal of sufficient strength, affords for themicroprocessor 14 to read a data file stored therein. The data file that is read by themicroprocessor 14 is selected randomly. The selected data file is then sent to a digital/analog converter within the speech circuitry 12 and converted into sound using thespeaker 18. In this manner, an interactive toy provides a randomly selected answer to a question posed by a user. It is appreciated that the microphone 16 andspeaker 18 can be either physically connected or wirelessly connected to the speech circuitry andmicroprocessor 14. - The Mask ROM memory of the present invention can contain a number of different answers selected by, for example a toy manufacturer. For illustrative purposes only and in no way limiting the scope of the invention, the inventive toy shown in
FIG. 3 , that is the teen advisors called “The Lemons”, can be programmed to be voice activated and audibly respond to a question with a randomly selected answer from the following group of answers: - Similarly, the set of answers for the fortune teller (Madam Seemore), the personal therapist (Dr. Fulbright) and the business adviser (Buddy Kool) are of a nature to provide a suitable answer to questions which might be asked of such persons. For example, the personal therapist can respond with such phrases as “Uh huh . . . please continue” and “I see . . . how does this make you feel?”, etc., thereby continuously encouraging the speaker to talk. The business advisor, as shown in
FIG. 4 , can respond to potential business questions with answers like “I know all about that, I heard it from legal” and “That's easy of course, I heard it from legal”. The list of randomly selected answers can include any number of answers and responses limited only by the imagination of the manufacturer, - In one embodiment of the present invention, the interactive toy includes an on/off
switch 52 which energizes or de-energizes thetoy 50. Preferably, the on/off switch is in the form of a push button that when depressed energizes thetoy 50 from a “sleep” mode into an “awake” mode. In addition, the toy is operable to run in different awake modes, for example a demo mode when the toy is on sale in a retail store and a play mode when the toy has been purchased. In demo mode, the audio sensitivity of the toy can be reduced to prevent triggering by outside sounds in the retail store. Furthermore, the interactive operation of the toy can be limited to, for example, one minute before returning automatically to a sleep mode. Instructions can be provided to the user to change the switch to a play mode position once the toy is purchased. - When the toy is displayed on a shelf in a retail store or when purchased and being used by the owner, the toy senses a user's speech as an audio signal above a predetermined level for more than a pre-set time period, for example, 1.5 seconds. After the audio input is completed and followed by a pre-defined wait period, for example 2 seconds of silence, the toy senses that the user has finished the question. After the wait period, the toy assembles a message/answer and responds to the user. It is appreciated that one mode of operation by the
toy 50 can include: (1) the microphone 16 detecting the speech as audio and transmiting the audio signal to the speech circuitry 12; (2) the speech circuitry receiving the audio signal in analog form and transmiting the signal to themicroprocessor 14 after converting said signal into digital form using an analog to digital converter; (3) themicroprocessor 14 receiving the digital signal and upon detecting the pre-defined wait period selecting a data file containing an answer that is stored in the Mask ROM memory and transmitting the data file in digital form to the speech circuitry 12; (4) the speech circuitry receiving the data file and transmitting said file to thespeaker 18 after converting the data into an audio signal using a digital to analog converter; and (5) thespeaker 18 receiving the data file in analog form and transmitting the message in audible form, thereby producing sound that is recognized as an answer by the user. - Another embodiment of the present invention affords for the interactive toy to provide a response by choosing a message which includes a random selection of two statements. A first statement can include an opening statement and a second statement can include a closing statement. For example, Table 1 illustrates a number of messages that can be transmitted in audible form by the speaker of the interactive toy. The statements or messages under “DEMO Mode—Start ups” provide possible choices for the interactive toy, in the form of “Madam Seemore,” to transmit when the on/off
switch 52 is activated by a user examining the toy in a retail store. The messages shown under “PLAY Mode—Start ups” shows an alternative set of messages that can be played by the toy once purchased. -
TABLE 1 DEMO Mode - Start ups 1. The clouds are clearing. All the answers will be revealed. Go ahead, ask me about your heart's desire. 2. I can see into your future and will guide you. Go ahead . . . Try Me. Ask me what's on your mind. PLAY Mode - Start ups 3. The wisdom of ages knows all. Ask me what's on your mind. 4. You've come to one who knows. What do you need? 5.
