Pi Pets Robotics Mobile App
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pi Pets Robotics: Robot pets powered by Pi. A Pi Pets robot accepts voice commands like "speak", "sit", "shake", "come", "find", "dance", and many more. If you own a Pi Pets robot, you can use this app to create a series of commands to be followed by your robot pet using programming flow control commands like conditionals, loops, and counters. It allows access to the sensors and actuators of your robot to create a program for it to follow using an easy to learn programming language called Pi Pets Robot EPIC (Extremely Powerful Instruction Code). Writing an EPIC program is as easy as speaking natural language phrases. It provides a fun and easy introduction to programming. Other features of the app include configuration of Wi-Fi connectivity to improve speech command recognition, a remote-control page, and the ability to update your robot's firmware as new features are developed.
