BMO

The Project

It's a little robot/videogame console inspired by the Adventure Time TV show. BMO is made out of spray painted ABS and has a very cute 3.5 inch LCD display. BMO is powered by a Raspberry Pi zero and the Google Voice HAT, which has slots for two speakers and servos for the arms. The little screen is soldered under the Pi Zero in the analog tv pins, the screen was a little car display modified to run on 5V. BMO uses Whisper API Text-to-speech algorithm to grant BMO the ability to "understand" you and answer in appropriate manner, with animations and sometimes jokes. BMO also runs Retropie with a custom theme, which allows you to manage files and start up some games. BMO also has a custom game that i coded myself, it's called Jake Pong (yes, very original, i know) It's still a work in progress though, the front buttons are missing and BMO does not have any arms or legs yet.
