Ding ding ding ding @Toymaker, right on the money. There will never be the perfect the A.I. , but having one that adapt to the user and slowly adjust itself overtime is exactly what I am seeking for. from a developers point of view,programming the perfect A.I, will be the ultimate programmers nightmare. Imagine how many line of codes that will be needed to do a simple task like pick up mail from doorstep, find human and handed over. Netflix find movies, tv shows base on the user watchlist history. Google search use the user data to predict upcoming search.

Now imagine having a similar algorithm to make the robot adjust to it's entourage to have a simple friendly conversation with it's owner.

Yes yes I know self aware robot is dangerous, Sky net blah blah blah. But with the EZ-B platform I plan on making a personal assistant that have a more child like behavious with little human control as possible.

Simple task, I will say them on a very low end level as if I was speaking to robot.

If battery low, find the nearest charger and charge yourself While driving if losing grip on rear motors, send more powers to front motors. if item place in hand and trigger sensor, shake head side to side and say thank you. if doorbell ring, show live feed of doorbell camera to human. IF house temperature greater than 80, lower AC to 60 for 20 mins. On startup enable face scan for security. if not the proper face, shut down in 2 min while saying "errors"

having a visual virtual face such as Ariel or my madonna will be able to show certain expression like happy, danger sad etc ( will be pre-program).

yes most of what I just mention are capable with EZ-B script.

Simply want a more autonomous robot vs the typical machine robot.

@Toymaker, all the features that you preview on the forums are stuffs that I have been searching for a long time. I will start saving now , once they are available to the public ( hopefully mid 2014) I will be ready. IR controller, tall robot with legs but wheel underneath, Ariel, detachable arms, self learning A.I. . I appreciate your hard work and ingenuity. And without DJ dream, I wouldn't be here, sort of directed me to the right path. Currently pursuing my bachelor, but I plan on earning my PHD on Robotic artificial intelligence. I guess you guys can see why I am so curious about the perfect A.I ( yes I know not possible).

I also had mention the EZ-B SDK on my very 1st post, because once the A.I have been developed to fit your robotic needs, it can easily be integrated into ARC with the .dll file extension. at least that the way that I want to do it. Others might prefer integrating it differently.

English my 3rd language , please pardon my mediocres grammars and poor words usages.

I look at both ways finding a good AI that can be adapted to EZB ,BY designing it using SDK or buying it and adapt to EZB.

To design a good AI SOFTWARE from scratch its going to take a very long time.

BUT to buy a commercial design and using api command (sdk) wont take that long

I dont think we will be able to make a good AI SOFTWARE as good as a commercial design,one main reason the have the best programmers,LIKE TOYMAKER design,but then the price makes a big difference.

So it looks like a trade off

PJ your grammar etc. is fine. It makes sense which is the main thing, minor mistakes along the way are overlooked, even major ones if it makes sense.

@Rich total agreement! @robotmaker... software is very important and EB solves that to a large extent.....Those who want more try scripting(Thanks Rich) and others more advanced languages. Now C# ! I wish I knew that one because thats the language , I believe, Kinect uses!

Also agree with @rich.

I also agree with @irobot58. Its really cool righting the code and watching it work. What PJ wants to do is a big project, but its no bigger to him then building your very first bot. The project looked monsterous. I would also like to learn C# or something like that too, and maybe down the road I will. But with EZ-B I can do everything I can think of to realize my robot dreams as the biggest 10 year old you'll meet See I look at the EZ-B and what PJ wants to do is a great way for me to go wild with out being bogged down with trying to figure out how to learn a low level language and building circuits to do stuff in the real world from the program I right. The EZ-B connects me to the real world and I just write code..

Sorry if my little rant bothers some people. I just think we should all swing for the fence in our projects even if you can buy it some what made already. I like PJ's idea and damn even going for a PHD too. Good luck bud.

Yes i said the same thing that software is important
