Pet Kimochi Gives Dogs and Cats a Comic Voice
An iPhone AR camera app that turns a pet’s posture, ears, tail, and movement into mood labels and speech bubbles.
Field notes
The proposed workflow runs on an iPhone camera: Apple animal detection and pose estimation examine posture, ears, tail, and movement, then generate a mood label and tappable speech bubbles. The page claims more than 380 lines per app, with separate dog and cat references rather than one shared vocabulary. A two-animal mode is designed to turn simultaneous detections into dialogue, while saved photos preserve the bubble and selected visual theme. The site also says analysis remains on-device.
