Welcome to poetry corner.
I wanted to start this to have a light hearted thread on the forum, and have a bit of fun. The idea is that any of you guys who have robots that can talk, you can teach your robot a poem, rhyme or limerick (a clean one of course) that can be about anything you like, and post a video for all to see and enjoy.
This is not a competition for finding the best one, and you don't have to be a professional writer or anything. This is just a chance to unleash your creative side, and a chance for others to see and hear your robot do something a little different. The poem/video can be as long or as short as you like, so get creating.
To start off, K-9 is getting the ball rolling, so check out the video and let us know what you think. And if you are EZ Robot staff or a community member, and you listen carefully, you might just hear a rhyme about you
. Unfortunately I couldn't include everyone. That would be a loooong video.
So I hope you take part, and if don't, then I hope you enjoy the video.

@Dave.
Your welcome for the mention and really pleased you liked the video. I completely understand what your saying about choosing between having an authentic voice but limited to sound files, or going with a different voice and having dynamic speech. It was something that kept me awake at night, trying to decide what way I should go. it as he is "2.0" and wanted the latter, there was only one choice in the end.
Also thanks for you kind comments. Keep up the great work your doing.
@Alan.
No problem at all. I'll post some details on the other thread to keep the subject all in one place. Funnily enough, I was looking that thread yesterday looking for another way to do something similar using the EZ-B on my next build.
Here's another one for you guys.
A Dalek wouldn't eat his greens,
and refused by any means.
So to get the strength to dominate,
He said his phrase "exterminate"
and tried to cook some beans.
