Interactive device with advancing levels of communication capability

摘要

A cognitive system is provided which includes an interactive device, such as a toy, for communicating with a user. The cognitive system includes different levels of communication capability for communicating with the user via the interactive device. The system adjusts from one level of communication capability to another level of communication capability of the different levels of communication capability based on occurrence of one or more specified conditions of user communication with the interactive device. For instance, the different levels of communication capability may include multiple levels of language capabilities, and the one or more specified conditions may include one or more language-based interaction conditions, time-based interaction conditions, or physical-based interaction conditions of the user with the interactive device.
