Week 4

Hey everyone!
Here’s an update for the fourth week of our project.

This week we gained access to the Cozmo SDK and were thrilled to start developing some simple prototypes for Cozmo. We chose to focus on a number of key areas: face recognition, cube tapping, cube movement, and custom fixed objects. We also experimented with using speech recognition on the PC and Cozmo’s speech synthesis to enable two-way voice communication with Cozo. Though we’re still getting acquainted with the capabilities of the SDK, we have completed one prototype. Odd-one-out is a cube tapping-based game that tasks the player with identifying the cube that doesn’t match the others. Cozmo provides animated feedback. Check it out below:

We also finalized branding based on feedback from faculty and our contacts at Anki. Final branding is below:

 


Thanks for reading, and check back next week for further updates!
