AI in Robotics

• What we'll do
In this session, you will learn how to build a cognitive robot powered by IBM Watson. You'll learn about the open-source project, the TJ Bot, and how you can control robots with inexpensive hardware such as the Raspberry Pi. We'll explore how a robot can use Watson services to understand what is heard and seen, understand emotions, translate content from one language to another, and speak to the user. We will also share tips and tricks to building a robot that can live amongst humans.

Watson Services covered include:

• Discovery
• Text-to-Speech
• Speech-to-Text
• Conversation
