I'm finding that MarySpeech takes a while to start up on a Raspberry Pi - at least a minute before it starts working. Also sometimes the speech is broken up if other things are going on like setting digital pins using an Arduino and the MRL service.

I also tried to install destival and use localSpeech but that is just silent, not sure what I've missed. Does anyone have any tips or anything else that's working?

thanks

Hi all

I have my Raspberry Pi and Picam working now, thanks for all the help on that. I'm now trying to get some simple vision stuff working. I've managed to do face tracking and get the bounding box variables returned to the code using this example:

However it's a bit heavy for the Raspberry Pi, and essentially I just need optical flow, so the LKOpticalTrack filter looks ideal. I can make it work int he Gui - it tracks points fine and I can speifcy the point to track in the code as per the example also which works fine.

hello i am new to the world of myrobotlab and programing and i have a question about the chatbot ...i installed myrobotlab via the inmoov tutorial that i am now constructing...at first i installed everything with the 32 bit java version ....the chatbot was answering my questions and all....i noticed that i was running a 64 bit windows version ...so i installed the 64 bit java version....then the chatbot stoped answering ...????

Hey everybody, I figured i would make an official post for progress on the advanced head as well as provide the list of features that are currently in the works.  Spawn is my official tester and, with my permission, might release videos of parts of the advanced head.  The head, at the moment, will be controlled with 28 servos 

Current features in the works:

I am having trouble changing the voice in MarySpeech on Azul. It used to work, but I deleted the MRL directory and started fresh when I changed to Manticore 1.0.2693.

I have been building the inmoov over the last few months in my workshop which has no internet connection. I have setup MRL on a laptop and it all works fine while inside, but when I take it to the workshop and attach it to the inmoov, I can get most of it working, but then if I inadvertantly ask it a question that requires an internet lookup, it just stalls. 

Is there any way to run this without internet, or something I can change so it either ignors the command or says there is no internet so cannot do that etc?

A question about the PIR sensor. I have now moved to the Manticore 1.0.2693 version and am running the INMOOVE gestures and routines that install with it. I have the service_C_Pir.config set to True and the right pin number defined, along with the correct board. When starting Azul the PIR service says it starts. Putting Azul to sleep with “Go To Sleep” works, I expect Azul to wake up by movement in front of the PIR sensor. Azul does not wake up. The question, does the PIR routine work in this version of MRL?

Hi, I have a few questions concerning the new WatchDog Service:
