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.

Thank you Justin! It's been a long journey. There will be 10 articles in total. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me here.
Yes, the book is still planned. I am just waiting on the folks at servo to catch up. Probably by summer.
Also, (again, once servo catches up on their issues) I'll be a regular columnist there. I will have a column on A.I.--the latest news, how-tos, code and projects. It's going to be a BLAST!
I had thought about hacking one of those errr ummm life size anatomically correct female dolls but I think the wife may have some concerns and our mail man has been known to spread rumours.
I want to build my own humanoid following most of Thomas's build process, but I'm not sure if I want to build a FemBot or maybe use a male mannequin as the robot body donor and perhaps make a Jeeves type butler or maybe Data from Star Trek TNG.
