BowLingual Voice Translates Barks

Ever wished you could, on a Tarzan-like level, communicate with fearsome beasts of the wild to make them do your bidding? Well, for folks who want to know what their dogs are thinking, TakaraTomy has revealed the BowLingual Voice device that is touted to feature a 100-word vocabulary and an LCD display that lets you know just how your pooch is feeling at the moment. Too bad only the Japanese language is supported at the moment, although we’re pretty sure it won’t take too long before other languages are released for the BowLingual Voice. Available in three colors when it arrives at store shelves this August in Japan, the BowLingual Voice is tipped to retail for $220.
