ABSTRACT
Over the last few years we have witnessed rapid research and development in the field of artificial intelligence and robotics. One of the main reasons for this growth has been the rapid advancement in computing. This research project focuses on designing and building a humanoid robot development kit titled as Oizzu, powered by a mobile processor, with the aim of integrating the latest hardware and libraries available to provide an innovative platform for researchers and developers. We have developed a main application program which runs on Android Operating System and implements basic functionalities like speech to text, text to speech, face detection and recognition, response database and object detection. Users will be able to develop their program installed as a plug-in application, by integrating provided two-way Android Interface Definition Language (AIDL) and public class methods into their project. We deployed the proposed approach as on a humanoid robot by Kondo and the whole project was titled as Oizuu.
