UDOO Team is proud to showcase it’s latest invention: a DIY Android powered Robot with voice recognition and Twitter connection. His name is Mario, the pinnacle of Android making.
The Mario’s heart is a UDOO Quad running Android 4.3 plus an Arduino Motor Shield which controls 2 servos (Mario’s Arms) and 4 Motors that turn 4 wheels (Mario’s Legs). To show his cute face Mario has a 7 inch LVDS display while his mouth is a little speaker.
To make him talk we used the Google APIs voice recognition and text to speech in order to give him a life. We also used Twitter APIs to control Mario via Twitter, he can read tweets and it’s also possible to send commands to Mario with a simple chirp.
