Indeed you can.
I have installed MyRobotlab on OdroidU2, U3, Raspberry2, Raspberry3.
If you know linux it will be easy to set up.
If you never used Linux, it will be interesting because you will discover a new world.
Download the Manticore version here (simplified to install for InMoov builders with linux launcher) or directly on myrobotlab.org

Once installed folowing the tutorial here, just run in the terminal the Start_inmoov.sh.

As a side note, the Raspberry has a processor that currently cannot handle video aquisition and be multi task at the same time.
So it is the reason, I didn't go on using it because, it was just too slow to properly run the full InMoov, which does face tracking, face recognition, object filter detection, speak use ProgramAB and controls the servo motors via the Arduino all at the same time.
Some builders run various Raspberry to do all that at once, but I never tried.

I almost forgot http://myrobotlab.org/content/installing-mrl-raspberry-pi-3-noobs
This tutorial is for the older version of MRL but should also work.

Hello,
Manticore is the most recent version of the software MyRobotLab which is compatible and working for InMoov. (27/02/2018)
It is compatible with Linux, MacOS, Windows.
Here is the version:
myrobotlab.1.0.2693.1.zip

The above ZIP version 1.0.2693.1 contains a fix for mouth control which is not available on the official Myrobotlab.org

Is the Manicore version specifically for Myrobotlab and its its own Linux? Or is it a  program

Hi Max,
  Not sure if you remember,  but I used a Ras PI 3 with my InMoov at the Boston (mini) Maker Faire... so.. short answer is, yes. a Ras PI can run MyRobotLab to power the InMoov.

I am going "all in" for a Nvidia Jetson TX2, a bit expensive but can be used in so many projects :)
Has that been done before, and does it exist some kind of mount for the Jetson and the Inmoov ?

All servos ordered, Jetson will be here tomorrow, but my priting has just started :/ going to be using
ABS+, stronger than ABS and les fumes...

Hello and welcome,
I haven't seen anyone using the Jetson TX2. It seems very interesting!
Have you seen a battery pack for it?
