TJBOT continues the spirit of the handmade community, it is a DIY toolkit that allows you to build programmable cardboard robots driven by Waston. The robot consists of a cut paperboard (can be 3D print or laser cut), RASPBERRY PI, and a plurality of plug-ins (including a RGB LED lamp, a microphone, a servo motor, and a camera). At the same time, TJ BOT is still an open source project, we can view relevant instructions on Instructables.com and GitHub. IBM team has provided three TJ BOT launch guides, but they want everyone to contribute their own DIY robot assembly guidance.
The following is the existing TJ BOT production process:
Let TJ BOT respond to emotions. The RGB LED light on the TJ Bot header changes the color according to the public emotions of a given topic on Twitter. It is connected to Twitter API (https://dev.twitter.com/overview/API), can automatically capture the essay and can run Watson Tone Analyzer (http://www.ibm.com/watson/developercloud/ Tone-analyzer.html to identify the overall emotions. For example, you can give TJ BOT to make it tracked about the public's social emotions about Amy Award in real time.

Control TJ BOT with your voice. You can use your voice to give some foundations under TJ BOT. For example, you can ask TJ BOT "Tune the light into yellow", then it will put your light into yellow. TJ BOT uses the Watson Speech to Text API to transcribe, analyze, and understand what you said.

Chat with TJ BOT. Use three Watson API to create a "chat" BOT, you only need three steps. Watson Speech To Text API (http://www.ibm.com/watson/developercloud/speech-to-text.html) will convert your voice into text, then Watson Conversation (https://www.ibm.com /watson/developercloud/conversation.html) Processing text and calculates a reply, and then Watson Text to Speech converts text into audio, let TJ Bot respond. You can talk to TJ BOT from the weather to your favorite TV show, depending on how you programmatically program your Rasberry Pi.

TJ BOT is an example of "Embodied Cognition", which is to intelligently implant the specific objects in your daily life. In this example, we put Watson technology into a cut cardboard, imagine that the walls of your home, your furniture or all the objects in your home can have the above capabilities.
One of the key to creating awareness and authenticity is to understand the way humans and things interaction. Interaction with these objects, such as interaction with TJ BOT, more natural than interaction with existing computing devices: You don't need to type with keyboard, just use sound to order it.
Whether you want to write a code with "BIG IDEA" or complete a subject of the class, you can participate in the TJ BOT's open source project.
Search for "Love Bo.com" to pay attention, daily update development board, intelligent hardware, open source hardware, activities, etc., you can make you master. Recommended attention!
