Abstract

The concept of AI companionship is gaining popularity in recent times. Our project is an attempt to create a robotic companion that can act just like a pet. We created a Pet Robot that can perform various functions like recognise people, recognise objects, recognise emotions, play games, follow a person around, listen to voice commands, dance and so on. This paper focuses on the hardware aspect of the robot and the working of the Core program (Kernel). It further discusses the algorithm that was implemented in this architecture and compares the final version with other variations. Our work was able to create a fully functioning AI pet robot by using just cheap commercially available development boards, motors and a Desktop PC.

Highlights

  • For the longest time, man has tried to seek companionship in the form of pets

  • Keeping the pros and cons of these pet robot we tried to create our own version of an AI pet robot

  • In this paper we explain the hardware components we used and how they interact with one another to form a functioning robot that is capable of performing complex AI and CV algorithms

Summary

Introduction

Man has tried to seek companionship in the form of pets. There are a lot of benefits of having a pet like entertainment, provide emotional support, protect you and your belongings, etc. It owning a pet has its responsibilities. Our project tries to create such a pet that one does not necessarily have. In this paper we explain the hardware components we used and how they interact with one another to form a functioning robot that is capable of performing complex AI and CV algorithms. Throughout this paper all the AI algorithms mentioned are cited from this [1] paper
