Have you ever wondered what your dog is really thinking? Takara, a Japanese toymaker, has invented a gadget which translates dog barks into human words! Depending on your dog barks and growls, this gadget-called the Bowlingual — “translates” them into phrases like “I can’t stand it,” “How boring,” and “I’m lonely. Play with me, please.”

Car of the Future

What will the car of the future look like? This one has no engine. It doesn’t need petrol. There isn’t even a steering wheel. Best of all, it doesn’t pollute the air! Unlike today’s cars, the Hy-wire, designed by General Motors, doesn’t give off any harmful gases into the air. It is powered by chemical reactions between oxygen and water. The only thing this car releases is water vapour. General Motors says the Hy-wire court be on the road by 2010 —just in time for you to drive!

Don’t be surprised if in a few yeas you’ll be putting on your socks and your computer each morning before going to work. Of course, you might not even have to leave the house. Scientists predict that in the future most of us will work from home!

At Your Service

If you are sick and tired of helping your parents about the house, then a new robot could be the answer.

Wakamaru, made by Mitsubishi, has been designed to make people’s life easier. This bright yellow robot with beady eyes can do different jobs for you and help you remember things you have to do. Here are some things Wakamaru can say: “Let me search the Internet!”, “What time will you be back?”

If Wakamaru is on its own and something seems wrong. it can e-mail its owner to let them know there is a problem.

It’s so clever that when its batteries run out Wakamaru knows that it needs to recharge itself, so it does!
