    Can aibo step over bumps such as mats or carpets?

    aibo is designed to navigate common household surfaces, including mats, carpets, and other minor changes in floor height. Understanding how aibo detects and responds to uneven surfaces can help you use it safely and avoid situations where it could fall or become damaged.

    aibo can move over small changes in floor height, such as mats and carpets. As aibo walks around your home, it gradually learns the locations of areas with steps or uneven surfaces. Over time, it may approach these areas more carefully and move more slowly. If aibo detects a large step or drop, it may stop to avoid falling or change direction.

    Note: Depending on the environment and recognition conditions, aibo may not always detect steps or changes in floor height correctly. A fall may cause damage or malfunction. To help prevent damaged to aibo, do not use it near stairs, ledges, balconies, or other elevated areas where there is a risk of falling.
