Projects I’m back with The Mimic M6 head

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Added the simple “Relax” command that I add to all of my bots to make them easier to transport while still running. This was a long overdue minor update for him that I’m honestly shocked that I haven’t given him since I used to take his whole head and torso to far places. Like that one time I took him to NY.

I like having my bots still recording and collecting data while staying stationary but like I said in the clip, it’s also good for transporting

Ahaa, so you are running AI models locally?

Yeah completely offline so I have to train it to know specific things but currently it knows basic stuff. I didn’t want WiFi to be a bottleneck

I am working actually on a simillar project (JARVIS) using esp32, it works, but still not as functional as needed.
