A personal character
Choose the animal, palette, name and tactile character. Begin with an original V7 design; official team mascots or identities are considered only with the relevant authorization.
Sports Companions: A favorite team. A friend of your own.
Original soft animal robot concepts for NBA, NFL and NHL fan communities and players. Commission a game-day character, bring one home or create a gift—with multiple sizes, personal programs and a plan to renew the technology inside.
Commission your robot →Sports Companions, considered.
Around the person
Define age, environment, program preferences and movement limits. A companion for a young fan needs a different interaction brief from one for a private player’s lounge.
Built to be renewed
Plan replaceable modules and repair access from the outset. Preserve the character through compatible upgrades, with service terms and parts availability agreed per commission.
Each direction begins with a platform and feasibility assessment. Images show design concepts; performance and availability are agreed for the specific project.

Personalize this program →Proposed program bands are not toy safety certifications. Child-facing configurations require age-specific assessment and adult supervision. Physical interaction, fibers, cleaning, accessible stops and sensory preferences are reviewed individually. Recording is opt-in; owners control retained preferences.
04 / A CHARACTER WORTH KEEPING
Keep the character.
Renew what’s inside.
The ambition is a personal artifact that stays meaningful for years. A familiar face and predictable behavior can make technology feel more approachable. Comfort is a design goal, not a promise to eliminate stress.
Soft by design
Choose removable cotton covers, wool felt where suitable, or fine faux fur. Padded surfaces, covered mechanisms and adjustable sound make the tactile brief as important as the silhouette.
Serviceable from the beginning
Plan accessible batteries, actuators, sensors and computing modules. New components are fitted and tested against the original structure and operating limits.
Your history, under your control
Preserve selected names, routines and preferences through owner-controlled backups and compatible migration. Keep the option to export, reset or start fresh.
An honest plan for the future
Agree a maintenance and support term, parts availability and compatibility review. Upgrades are assessed and quoted as technology evolves; indefinite support and universal hardware compatibility are not promised.
One idea. Your own robot.
