hi,
i bought my little kids a new toy called Zoomer.
It is a robot dog that has some infrared sensors and a microphone. he recognize voice commands and do different funny stuff.
unfortunately he does not understand me well. i am telling him: Zoomer, sit down. and he goes to pee
and my kids don't really speak english, they know few words from dora and diego but not enough to tell this stupid dog to sit down or shake a paw... and even if they repeat what i said he still goes to pee. (maybe i charged him to much?!
so i decided to make a simple b4i app (on my ipad) that will talk to zoomer and wallah, it worked via TTS
here is the code if someone will have similar issues with dogs as i did.
The code is very simple, every button.tag is filled with the command that zoomer understand, like:
btn1.tag = "Zoomer, go to sleep.", btn2.tag = "Zoomer, follow me.",...
my kids really enjoy playing with zoomer, fun toy but without b4i a bunch of plastic...
