The InMoov service allows control of the InMoov robot. This robot was created by Gael Langevin.

It's an open source 3D printable robot.  All of the parts and instructions to build are on the website http://www.inmoov.fr

InMoov is a composite of servos, Arduinos, microphone, camera, kinect and computer.  The InMoov service is composed of many other peer services, and allows easy initialization and control of these sub systems.

Those services cooked to give life to InMoov :

- Full installation

   - Overview
   - Setup software
   - Setup hardware
   - Extra services

• Overview 

InMoov is powered by MyRobotLab a java framework, hardware ( arduino ) is driven by a embeded protocol ( mrlcomm it is the sketch you need to put inside the arduino ) . Mrlcomm transform for you arduino code to easy undertandable & standardized methods. So every scripting methods are done in Python to end user side.

• Setup software

1. Download JAVA 8 - https://www.java.com/fr/download/manual.jsp ( if your computer is 64bit, please take 64bit version )
2. CHROME - set it default - https://www.google.fr/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html ( if you want to use WebKitSpeechRecognition service )
3. ARDUINO- https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software
4. KINECT SDK ( if you have one , it is important you do it now ) - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40278
5. Create a new folder mrl on root of your disk ( no spaces !! )
6. Download myrobotlab.jar : manticore stable
7. Download the launcher 

   -Windows : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MyRobotLab/inmoov/master/START_INMOOV.bat
   -Linux : ( chmod +x ./start_inmoov.sh ) : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MyRobotLab/inmoov/master/start_inmoov.sh

   
    

8. Click START_INMOOV and wait . Inmoov will say "Hello" and ask for your name !

By default the program launch a virtual environment, with virtual arduino and virtual 3D InMoov. 
Lets see how to use real Hardware !

• Setup hardware

If you use or not nervoboards, don't forget to use a dedicated power suply for your servo, arduino have not enough power. This is a generic recommandation about power supply and common ground.

1. It's time to flash your arduino(s) with MRLcomm sketch. You can find it inside this folder : MRL\resource\Arduino\MRLComm ( close mrl before )
2. Set the Port com of your Arduino(s) in device manager to 115200 BAUD.

Now you need to specify the hardware configuration according to the progress of your robot :

- FingerStarter case :

Open config file InMoov\config\_InMoov.config
Change ScriptType=Virtual to ScriptType=RightSide . This will tell the software it is not virtual anymore, and use the "right" arduino.
You need to specify now what is the COM port of arduino to use . 
Open service_6_Arduino.config
You will see : MyRightPort=COM4 . Just change COM4 by your COM port number.
Because you need only one finger and don't want every unused InMoov skeleton part ( torso , arm ... ) you need to activate the right hand
Open config file InMoov\config\skeleton_rightHand.config and change isRightHandActivated=False by isRightHandActivated=True

You can now start InMoov

- Full robot :

Open config file InMoov\config\_InMoov.config
Change ScriptType=Virtual to ScriptType=Full . This will tell the software it is not virtual anymore, and use both arduino.
You need to specify now what are the COM ports of arduino to use . 
Open service_6_Arduino.config
You will see : MyRightPort=COM4 . Just change COM4 by your COM port number.
you need to activate skeleton parts, exemple :
Open config file InMoov\config\skeleton_rightHand.config and change isRightHandActivated=False by isRightHandActivated=True. Same logic for all others skeleton parts.

You can now start InMoov

• Extra services

You can activate and tweak services using corresponding config file. Exemple to activate the camera : 
Open config file InMoov\config\service_D_OpenCv.config

Set isOpenCvActivated=True

- Change language 

Inmoov can interact with you in many languages. There are some pre-configured ( en,fr,es,de,nl,ru,hi )

At this time most efficient worky chatbot is English & French ( others worky but need more translations )

You have the choice of multiple speech engines : List here

To use another language that default English, you need to change 2 things.

1/ System language inside main _InMoov.config

2/ Voice engine and voice name ( config/service_5_Mouth.config ) .

( Some of those voice engines need an API key )

Example to change English to Dutch using MarySpeech engine, edit those files :

_InMoov.config > Language=de

config/service_5_Mouth.config  > Speechengine=MarySpeech
config/service_5_Mouth.config  > VoiceName=dfki-pavoque-neutral-hsmm

Exemple to change English to French using local MarySpeech engine

_InMoov.config > Language=fr

config/service_5_Mouth.config  > Speechengine=MarySpeech
config/service_5_Mouth.config  > VoiceName=upmc-pierre-hsmm

Exemple to use universal local operating system TTS engine ( windows or macos ):

_InMoov.config > Language=fr

config/service_5_Mouth.config  > Speechengine=LocalSpeech
config/service_5_Mouth.config  > VoiceName=0 ( check the voice id )

etc ...

- DIY & Test scripts 

This is raw references about InMoov Scripting, if you want to code from scratch / debug / and understand how things worky. Inside Pyrobotlab repository you can find too useful things.
