Storage medium, robot, information processing device and electronic pet system
First Claim
1. A storage medium detachably mounted in a body machine, the body machine serving as a body for a virtual living-body object, the storage medium comprising:
- an internal status parameter representing an internal status of the virtual living-body object including a feeling of the virtual living-body object;
renewable data to be renewed in accordance with an action taken by the virtual living-body object, the action being based on the internal status parameter; and
character/action tendency information for defining at least one of a character tendency and an action tendency of the virtual living-body object, wherein the virtual living-body object takes a further action based on both the character/action tendency information and the internal status parameter.

Abstract
An electronic pet having reality by various machines is implemented. An IC card stores a matter to be renewed in accordance with an action when an electronic pet takes the action on the basis of an internal status parameter which contains the feeling of the electronic pet and represents the internal status thereof, and it is detachably mounted in a device functioning as the body of the electronic pet. A virtual pet device functions as the body of the electronic pet and performs processing to display the electronic pet, and it has a slot in which the IC card is detachably mounted. A pet type robot functions as the body of the electronic pet, and it has a slot in which the IC card is detachably mounted.

- 15. A robot functioning as a body of a virtual living-body object, the robot comprising a detachably mounted storage medium which stores renewable data and character/action tendency information, the renewable data being renewed in accordance with an action taken by the virtual living-body object based on an internal status parameter, the internal status parameter representing an internal status of the virtual living-body object including a feeling of the virtual living-body object, and the character/action tendency information defining at least one of a character tendency and an action tendency of the virtual living-body object, wherein the virtual living-body object takes a further action based on both the character/action tendency information and the internal status parameter.
- 29. An information processing device which functions as a body of a virtual living-body object and which performs processing to display the virtual living-body object, the information processing device comprising a detachably mounted a storage medium which stores renewable data and character/action tendency information, the renewable data being renewed in accordance with an action taken by the virtual living-body object based on an internal status parameter, the internal status parameter representing an internal status of the virtual living-body object including a feeling of the virtual living-body object, and the character/action tendency information defining at least one of a character tendency and an action tendency of the virtual living-body object, wherein the virtual living-body object takes a further action based on both the character/action tendency information and the internal status parameter.

43. An electronic pet system, comprising:
-
a storage medium for storing renewable data to be renewed in accordance with an action taken by an electronic pet, the action being based on an internal status parameter which represents an internal status of the electronic pet including a feeling of the electronic pet, the storage medium capable of being detachably mounted in a device functioning as a body of the electronic pet;
a robot which functions as a first body of the electronic pet, and in which the storage medium may be detachably mounted; and
an information processing device which functions as a second body of the electronic pet by performing processing to display the electronic pet and in which the storage medium may be detachably mounted;
wherein the storage medium further stores character/action tendency information for defining at least one of a character tendency and an action tendency of the electronic pet and the electronic pet takes a further action based on both the character/action tendency information and the internal status parameter. - View Dependent Claims (44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56)
