We made the cover!
Simone an AI robot is part of the openFembot project is an opensource fembot humanoid robot. The robot's physical body is complete. The software is right behind it. ARC makes coding Simone very easy. (Thanks DJ!) Starting in March (End of February for the online version) servo Magazine is now publishing a series of articles of mine on building the robot. The first article is an introduction to the platform. The second will be on creating the rolling platform. Team Simone consists of a dedicated group of 12 roboticists from the greater Los Angeles area.

NEWSFLASH!!!
"Building an AI Fembot" will be made into a book later this year!
I was told by the publishers of servo Magazine that they will be turing the article series (so far 3 articles have been published and 7 more will follow) into a book! First an article, then a series of articles, then a book. What's next? A TV show?
WOW! Very impressive Thomas. Can't wait to see her in action. I ordered the servo magazine but have not received any yet.
Cheers
That's really cool - good to see your project is getting the recognition it deserves!
Thanks! Lots of work but lots of fun!
If work isn't fun, you're doing it wrong
It looks more like Dr Evil then a Fembot. LOL.
Just kidding. Once you put on the hair she'll look great. I am looking forward to seeing her in action. Will she have hidden guns in personal locations? LOL.
Ha! You are funny! Next phase is created articulated hands.

WOW! I just finished Part 8: Bring Simone to Life! of the Build Simone The AI Fembot in servo Magazine (issue-4.2022)
(It's weird the current servo Magazine issues are back dated but I seem to recall it was related to covid)
Outstanding article Thomas! Really fantastic detail and directions covering 14 pages!!! It has been a long, long time since I've seen such a well-documented project in any such magazine. Well done!!!
Did you mention at one time you were going to write a book on building the Fembot and other androids?
