So No Sound Sensors In Our Bots Because Servos Are To Loud...

so how do you make the bot "look" in your direction when you speak to him?

if i say something that triggers a response, how do i make the head " look at me"

I would create a voice command that says "Look at me" and then have it pan and tilt the camera until it finds an object to track

lol duh!!!!!

i think im too excited, i need to calm down

well in one of his video, he says, "right , omni bot?" and the bot looks at him and makes noises...

so i f i ask the bot to look at me i get it, make him scan...

but what if im asking a questions or just speaking a command...

me, "hey wall-e "

wall-e, turns head to me.

doesn't look like Sures bot is scanning to find him every time. almost like, he speaks and a sensor is going off....but not a sound sensor? not sure.

im using PIR sensors on either side of the wall e

if one goes off the head turns to that direction and then the body does... would be nice if he looked at a person when they spoke.

Servos are loud but you can do this to reduce noise, dynamat or use generic peel n seal from lowest.

The Robosapien V2 I have does that. It has a sound sensor in each ear. The inside has some sound deadening foam over the sensors . I think they only work when it isn't moving. :) J.W.
