Expanding Python On J Humanoid. Is Raspberry Pi The Right Choice?

Hello,

I am interested in using the J Humanoid robot for a project in my Computer Science and Information Systems degree. I plan to program the robot extensively in Python. I have a question for the forum: Will using a Raspberry Pi or a similar tool help me expand Python programming capabilities on the robot? My project focuses on addressing communication or speech disorders in children.

Thank you!

Hello @mekureya15,

Thank you for sharing the detailed project document. Your project is ambitious and impactful, aiming to support speech therapists with the JD Humanoid robot. Let's address your questions and provide guidance on how to proceed with ARC and Python programming.

Key Features and Requirements:

  1. Object Recognition with Camera
  2. Speech Capabilities
  3. AI Integration
  4. Data Analysis and Cloud Integration

Using ARC for Your Project:

ARC (Autonomous Robot Control) software provides a robust platform for integrating various functionalities, including object recognition, speech capabilities, and AI. Here's how you can leverage ARC for your project:

1. Object Recognition with Camera:

ARC supports various camera skills that can be used for object recognition. You can use the Camera Device skill to track objects, faces, colors, and more.

  • Camera Device Skill: Camera Device
  • Example Python Script for Object Recognition:
    # Start the camera
    controlCommand("Camera", "StartCamera")
    
    # Enable object tracking
    controlCommand("Camera", "EnableObjectTracking")
    
    # Check if an object is detected
    if getVar("$CameraObjectDetected"):
        print("Object detected!")
        # Perform actions based on object detection
    

2. Speech Capabilities:

ARC provides several skills for speech recognition and text-to-speech. You can use the Speech Recognition skill to recognize voice commands and the Audio skill for text-to-speech.

  • Speech Recognition Skill: Speech Recognition
  • Audio Skill: Audio
  • Example Python Script for Speech:
    # Speak a phrase
    Audio.say("Hello, how are you?")
    
    # Wait for a specific speech command
    command = Audio.waitForSpeech(10, "Please say a command")
    if command == "move forward":
        Movement.forward()
    

3. AI Integration:

You can integrate AI functionalities using the DialogFlow and Translate skills you mentioned. These skills allow you to process natural language and translate text.

  • DialogFlow Skill: DialogFlow
  • Translate Skill: Translate
  • Example Python Script for AI Integration:
    # Send a phrase to DialogFlow
    controlCommand("DialogFlow", "Send", "Hello there")
    
    # Get the response from DialogFlow
    response = getVar("$DialogFlowResponse")
    print("DialogFlow response:", response)
    
    # Translate the response to Spanish
    translated_text = translate(response, "es")
    Audio.say(translated_text)
    

4. Data Analysis and Cloud Integration:

For data analysis and cloud integration, you can use external Python libraries and services. While ARC does not natively support cloud storage, you can write Python scripts to interact with cloud services like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure.

  • Example Python Script for Cloud Integration:
    import requests
    
    # Send data to a cloud service
    data = {"patient_id": 1, "progress": "improved"}
    response = requests.post("https://your-cloud-service.com/api/data";, json=data)
    print("Cloud response:", response.json())
    

Integrating External Code with PyCharm:

You can develop your Python scripts in PyCharm and then integrate them into ARC. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Develop Scripts in PyCharm:

    • Write and test your Python scripts in PyCharm.
    • Ensure the scripts are compatible with ARC's Python environment.
  2. Integrate Scripts into ARC:

    • Copy the scripts from PyCharm and paste them into the Script skill in ARC.
    • Use ARC's Python API to interact with the robot's hardware and skills.

Conclusion:

ARC provides a comprehensive platform for developing your project with the JD Humanoid robot. By leveraging existing skills and integrating Python scripts, you can achieve the functionalities required for your project. If you have any specific questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
