For anyone interested in a little more detail, “By using B.R.A.I.N.S software together with Aiko, we have created one of the most unique android,” says Le Trung on his project site, going on:
“The software is programmed in C# and Basic, and is constantly updated. BRAINS software controls speech, reading, math, vision, colors, hearing, automation and sensors. It controls reading temperatures to face and 3-D object recognition. In other words, it is literally the brain and heart of Aiko. In additional to controlling Aiko’s functions,the software can control Robot kits such as Kondo KHR2 through voice activation, automation and basic recognition. The BRAINS software is designed to interact with the surrounding environment, process it, and record the information into its internal memory. Once the internal memory is at full capacity, the information can be transferred into the server data base. The information can be shared for current and future robots.”
