Hi, In this instructable I’m going to teach you how I made my own “Jibo” but called “Twinky”
I want to clear this up… THIS IS NOT A COPY! I WAS BUILDING TWINKY AND THEN I REALIZED THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS ALREADY EXIST :c
It has almost the same functions but It doesnt need an internet connection and oviuousley it doesnt need a server. (Of course this make a lot of limitations,comparing with the functions of the Jibo Robot)
IT CAN SPEAK! PLAY MUSIC, SET TIMERS, ALARMS, TURN ON/OFF THE LIGHTS OR OTHER APPLIENCES, IT HAS A CALCULATOR AND A WEATHER STATION! DATE & TIME, BLUETOOTH 4.0, EVERYTHING WITH VOICE COMMANDS!!!! and also with a touch screen, it has one little motor so it can turn arround when one of the two microphones hear you talk or make a noise.
You can record your own commands in any language, I’m in Mxico so everything is in spanish.
The “brain” is an Arduino Mega, where all the code is running, there is a different board for the voice recognition called “SpeakUp Click” from “Mikroelektronika” I’ll leave all the links later so you can purchase this different boards.”
