1 NAO Robot V6

The latest version of NAO with 10 major areas of improvement is here! The result of a unique combination of mechanical engineering and software, NAO is a character made up of a multitude of sensors, motors and software piloted by a made-to-measure operating system: NAOqi OS.

NAO is designed to be personalized: add content, using a variety of capacities, enriching his personality and even developing new skills and know-how. NAO is your robot and the Choregraphe software will help you to personalize him. It includes 7 Senses for natural interaction:

• Moving: NAO has 25 degrees of freedom and a humanoid shape that enable him to move and adapt to the world around him. His inertial unit enables him to maintain his balance and to know whether he is standing up or lying down.
• Feeling: The numerous sensors in his head, hands and feet, as well as his sonars, enable him to perceive his environment and get his bearings.
• Hearing and speaking: With his 4 directional microphones and loudspeakers, NAO interacts with humans in a completely natural manner, by listening and speaking.
• Seeing: NAO is equipped with two cameras that film his environment in high resolution, helping him to recognize shapes and objects.
• Connecting: To access the Internet autonomously, NAO is able to use a range of different connection modes (WiFi, Ethernet).
• Thinking: We can't really talk about "Artificial Intelligence" with NAO , but the robots are already able to reproduce human behavior.

Anyone can contribute to NAO's development by inventing new forms of use. Though the main applications are developed by the manufacturer SoftBank Robotics, NAO won't grow on his own. On the contrary, the platform that we offer opens the way for new creative models, aimed primarily at application developers, but not exclusively. Animators, sound designers, graphic designers, linguists, or even education and reception specialists, people from all disciplines are equally invited to join the SoftBank Robotics community. Creating, inventing, programming, and putting new content online will make NAO even more interesting!

As of today, more than 20,000 robots are used in multiple industry verticals making NAO the most used humanoid robot worldwide. Its design, capabilities and robustness make it an engaging and smart platform used in education, healthcare and retail.

Bring AI to life with Misty, the autonomous roaming robot your students can program to move around and interact with humans.

Wheeled and fully-programmable robot for Research and Education able to create 3D maps and moves autonomously and dynamically in response to its environment. Recognizes faces and objects and understands voice commands. Returns to charger autonomously. LCD face to display expressions and personality. Designed to be easy to program and integrate with sensing, vision, and machine-learning packages.

Misty open-source platform and open hardware is designed to delight robotics enthusiasts and institutions while providing access to a high-tech tool. Misty is designed to perform human to robot and robot to robot interactions using vision algorithms, supervised or autonomous control, and even voice recognition. Misty also has the ability to access the Internet or communicate via WiFi networks.

Misty also includes advanced features for a fully-programmable Robot, including:

• Deep Learning and AI: Qualcomm's Snapdragon Neural Processing Engine creates opportunities to use object detection for machine learning as well as supporting Misty's ability to perform autonomous tasks.
• High-performance Computer Vision & 3D Mapping: With the state-of-the-art Occipital Structure Core, Misty recognizes faces and navigates her environment. Misty's 4K camera lets you to grab images and stream video.
• Advanced Mics & Speakers: A 3-mic array detects sound directionally. And Misty's speakers are placed in a carefully engineered sound box with bass port to give Misty amazing sound quality.
• 6 Capacitive Touch Panels & 8 IR Time-of-Flight Sensors: Capacitive Touch means that Misty knows (and can react) when someone touches her. Her time-of-flight sensors give you distance data and keep Misty safe from falls.
• Customizable & and Expandable Hardware: Misty isn't just an amazing piece of tech on her own-she's designed for easy hardware modification with her many attachment points:
  • Backpack: Misty's basic "backpack" allows expendability via USB and serial. The Misty Arduino-Compatible Backpack (included in the Misty Starter Pack) turns Misty into a robotic base for your hardware imagination
  • Customizable Arms: Misty's emotive arms can be removed and replaced with creations you 3D print or build
  • Headpiece Attachment: A magnetized connection point on the side of Misty's head allows you to easily attach additional accessories
  • Trailer Hitch: Into the trailer lifestyle? Misty is too. Just hook her up via her built-in hitch port, and she'll tow the (reasonably weighted) trailer of your choice
