DESCRIPTION
Kurumi-chan is a Research-Robots from Vstone. It is built for Companionship, Development, Entertainment. Key figures: 0.6 kg, 4 degrees of freedom.
Kurumi-chan (Kigurumi Robot Kurumi-chan) is Vstone's tabletop communication robot whose outer skin is a plush 'kigurumi' costume instead of the usual plastic or metal shell, so it can take on the soft character look a dialogue robot needs. Buyers choose one of Vstone's prepared costumes, such as a rabbit, dog, bear or koala, and the costume can be changed. It is built for research and development in human-robot interaction and for field trials. A Raspberry Pi 4 runs it, with a wide-angle camera, the directional Intelligent Mic R and a speaker, and four servo axes move the torso, arms and head. Motions are made in VstoneMagic, speech recognition and synthesis can be added under a paid licence, a 64-bit version supports Python with Microsoft Azure samples, and a Presentation Kurumi-chan model runs slide presentations.
