Introducing the ALTAIR (Affordable Latest Technology Artificially Intelligent Robot) EZ:2 Robot
The first unveiling of the EZ;2 Robot (the commercial version of the EZ:1 Robot that has been seen on this forum) - you guys are seeing the EZ:2 first!
I am proud to confirm that it will have "EZ-Robot inside" and powered by the awesome V4 - well done DJ and the EZ-Robot team for making such a great product that allows robots like the EZ:2 to be light years ahead of the competition!
The EZ:2 will also have face and object recognition capabilities and our advanced Ai engine and will work together with the ARC software.
Because we have been waiting to design in the incredible EZ-Robot V4, we are behind on our development schedule (but it is worth waiting for) and we will now start beta testing in 2015.
I wanted the EZ:2 to look like a robot and not a humanoid and you will see this reflected in the design. I guess not everyone will like the design, but it is practical for (low cost) mass production and because of its modular build transportation costs are reduced.
Hope you all like the EZ:2.

Tony, An emotion chip! This is getting like Star Trek, Lt. Commander Data type stuff. Cybernetics Dr. (Tony) Soong. So much to look forward to, EZ Robot and Altair EZ:2 Robot. Luv it! Steve S
@Rich, that is right. I remember now. Thanks for reminding me. Motion ONLY not navigation.
OK, while we are on the subject. If your robot is moving, it should detect objects and people in front of you according to what was just said. So, if it is running into anything, it should know that it is. Just a thought.
And maybe we can use the electromagnetic sensor instead. Same type of operation. But, wait, they would not detect you if you were not metal. So microwave all the way.
Mel, the electromagnetic sensor that I use will detect anything wood, metal, people and animals etc. Its used as a car reversing sensor so it has to detect everything. It also has 3 sense zones so you get 3 distance indications.

Toymaker, Just checking to see if you are still on the forum Tony? Love your work. Thank you, Steve S
Yah, we miss your genius work.
Sorry to hear about the loss in your family. Hope you all are doing well.

Steve S, I am still around, its just that I have had some personal tragedies follow one after another over the last few months and it rather took the wind out of my sail. Dave thanks for the kind words.
I am getting back to the EZ:1 (dev platform) and EZ:2 (commercial) robots development with a new head and arm design. Here is the new MD-5DOFr arm (medium duty with 5 degrees of freedom right arm). I am now using miniature linear actuators for the elbow joint which work great.
I was not happy with the older version of this arm (seen in the object recognition video below) as it had too much play. I am still using the Bosch motors for the shoulder as they deliver all the torque I need at very low current consumption.
Hey Tony, welcome back... the redesigned arm is looking really good... If you don't mind me asking what model of Firgelli actuator are you using?
Welcome back Tony, Wishing you the best. Steve S
