Overview
A 39 cm metal-framed humanoid with 22 serial bus servos rated at 30 kg·cm or more, including two that work its hands for picking up small objects. OpenCV handles face recognition, color tracking and QR codes, and video streams to the app over Wi-Fi. Cloud LLM support lets it act on spoken requests, like TonyPi Pro does with ChatGPT. Its expansion board breaks out the Pi's GPIO for extra sensors. The software sits on Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS Melodic, both past end of support.
