For those of you who are registered at CochranRobotics.com, I have opened up a Rafiki build Status page. This shows photos of the build process of the prototype. The goal is to be able to start programming of the robot functions in about a week. Enjoy and let me know your thoughts.

BTW, this is where I have been since the summer. A lot of working on this project and not so much time to talk in the community. I sure miss having time to hang out here.

@Alan... now, now, you have to be clear... African or European?
@Richard R, exactly. Google Now and Siri both get the joke, and answer appropriately. I haven't tried Cortona yet. I was mostly joking, but actually knowing how it handles funny interactions would be interesting to know.

25 mph. It also references Monte python.
It uses a European Swallow.
It says that there are 47 species of african swollows. You would have to know which specie.
:) Very nice.

Wow David, Rafiki is definitely impressive he does kind of look like a penguin and I love all the features he has I hope to get one soon however I am not giving up Gideon, even though he may not go places lol.
Keep up the great work and if anything I can help with please let me know . ??
Wow Dave, your project is really exciting. Will the program you outlined in post 22 be available/accessible outside of buying a Rafiki?
I will be able to discuss more about this after a meeting that I have with my investor and lead programmer on the 21st and 22nd of this month. We will decide which products we want to release and discuss the cost of these products at that time.
