The final thing we wanted to do was to make Gumpter dance when told to do so! We used minim in processing and mapped his X and Y axis to certain volume levels to the song. When they reached these levels he would move to the right position (you can see him bobbing to the beat). He is working on being a better dancer but at least he has fun.

After a ton of trying to get voice recognition working, we did it! At first we had trouble getting the windows speech recognition working with our mic and processing (it would only spell words out for us "type H, type I, type SPACE, type G, type U... etc"). We ended up using micros which would enter a whole line of text when a specific sentence was said. Gumpter did great! Even if he messed up our handshake...

Gumpter: Motions

This is a work in progress! We added macros (speech to text) that you can type into a text box to get Gumpter to go through motions we programmed him to do. At this point he isn't voice activated yet so we are just running through a concept demo here. It's the main idea!
