You can use commands in the AIBO MAIL to set the vertical 
and horizontal positioning of the AIBO robot’s head (color 
camera) when having it take a picture.

You cannot change the AIBO robot’s head angle when using 
a voice command to take a picture. The AIBO robot will 
look straight ahead and take the picture.

You can tell the AIBO robot to take a picture using the AIBO 
MAIL command. Upon receiving this e-mail, the AIBO 
robot will take a single picture.

The AIBO robot will check the e-mail server for e-mail at the 
desired interval that you initially set (page 25). When it 
acknowledges receipt of an AIBO MAIL with a photo command, it 
will take a picture.

The command that you use in your AIBO MAIL body text 
for the AIBO robot to take a picture and e-mail it back as a 
JPEG attachment is: PHOTO, PHOTOL*.

* Because of the large size of images taken with PHOTOL, it is 

best used when sending images from a computer.

For instructions on viewing the pictures taken by the AIBO robot 
with your Web browser, refer to page 17.

The AIBO robot will e-mail back the picture it took as a 
JPEG attachment. 

* PHOTO: Sends a picture in standard resolution (208 × 160 

pixels).
PHOTOL: Sends a picture in high resolution (416 × 320 pixels).
