Andrew is able to recognize spoken words and respond to commands.
Currently if you ask Andrew to find the color Red or Blue or Green it will look around its surroundings until it find the color and then point at it.
If you ask Andrew to find a person it will search its surroundings looking for a person.
If the person is not recognized it will respond with "I found a person" and will point at the person.
If you ask Andrew "Who am I" it will look around its surroundings and if it recognizes the person it will then reply "You are Person Name".
I am working on improving its Arms and Hands so that it can engage in playing a game or picking up small objects and handing them to you.
Eventually there will be a mobile base either tracked or omni-wheel design so that Andrew can explore.
Andrew originally started using the HuskyLens for doing Face and Object recognition.
The current camera is the OpenMV H7 and is being used to track colors, faces, objects and recognize certain people.
There has been many changes in this project so I think that giving the current configuration is the best place to start.
