AARON InMoov Robot Progress

[Matthew Rodgers]

So for anyone interested, the Java version of the AARON AI is designed to have a plugin framework that will also allow control of motors and input from sensors.  So inbetween development on the AI software, also building this InMoov robot to later contain the software _when it's actually done_.  This is the latest video with speech recognition, text to speech, eyeball camera and microphone, neck and jaw motors.  Making one of these takes a LOT of work, so you might consider starting NOW rather than later.  If you do not have a 3D printer, consider going to your local library (some have them now!!!) or searching for a local "makerspace" or "hackerspace" in your area (it's like a club you can go to and use their equipment).  Earlier, we said we were supporting Arduino, and we probably still will, but for now we're using a Raspberry Pi 2 instead to do everything seen in this video.
