Abstract:
A motion system for allowing a person to cause a desired motion operation to be performed, comprising a network, a motion machine, a speech to text converter, a message protocol generator, an instant message receiver, and a motion services system. The motion machine is capable of performing motion operations. The speech to text converter generates a digital representation of a spoken motion message spoken by the person. The message protocol generator generates a digital motion command based on the digital representation of the spoken motion message and causes the digital motion command to be transmitted over the network. The instant message receiver receives the digital motion command. The motion services system causes the motion machine to perform the desired motion operation based on the digital motion command received by the instant message receiver.
Abstract:
A micro-processing device control system is provided. The system includes a micro-processing device, and a further electronic device connectable to or capable of communication with said micro-processing device to allow said micro-processing device to control one or more functions of said further electronic device. The micro-processing device includes audio connection means and microphone connection means. The audio connection means are arranged so as to be able to transmit one or more audio data signals and control data signals to said further electronic device. The microphone connection means are arranged so as to be able to receive one or more audio data signals and control data signals from said further electronic device for allowing control and/or feedback from said further electronic device to said micro-processing device.
Abstract:
An action editing window (200) is formed as a time table of a two-dimensional time line style, made up by a horizontal time axis and a vertical channel. Within the time line table, respective constituent elements of an action of a robot, such as a time ruler (201), a keyframe channel (202), a motion channel (203), a sound channel (204) or an LED operation channel (205), are chronologically displayed. A user is able to edit as synchronization between the respective components of the action is checked. This supports the creation and the editing of a series of commands and data stating a pattern of robot movements.

Abstract:
A motion system comprising a processing device, a media source, a motion device, a display, and a software program. The media source, motion device, and display are all in communication with the controller. The software program runs on the processing device and generates an interface comprising a play list and a play button. The play list contains a list of script items, where each script item contains motion data for operating the motion device to perform a desired movement sequence. The play button causes the software program to transfer a selected script item from the play list to the motion device to cause the motion device to perform the desired movement sequence.

Abstract:
A system and method for controlling a model train system and for defining a finite state machine for implementing control of the system. A computer (32) that is running a graphic user operating system is coupled through its serial port to a master control unit (MCU) (48). The MCU is coupled to slave control units (SCUs) (50, 52) and to a hand control unit (HCU)(152) through a token ring network (69) over which the computer transmits commands to energize selected track sections and to control the speed of locomotives (88, 90) running thereon. The MCU and SCUs are coupled to the sections of tracks and to electromagnetic switches (42, 44, 46) that determine the route of the trains over the sections of track. Furthermore, detector circuits (126) monitor a detector pulse to sense the presence of a locomotive or train on a particular section of track, producing an indicative output signal that is provided to the computer. The user graphically defines events, conditions, and control actions that are to be carried out on a visually displayed schedule manager grid. In addition, the user can graphically define a control panel that includes graphic controls, which can be manipulated by the user to establish the speed of a locomotive and to control the status of the electromagnetic switches. The control system can also be applied to control other systems that include electrically energized components.
Abstract:
A robot control device (a communication terminal) is a robot control device controlling a student robot playing a role of a student learning with a user and includes acquirer (a learning performance acquirer) that acquires an indicator presenting academic ability of the user, determiner (a student robot operation controller) that determines an operation of the student robot based on the indicator presenting the academic ability of the user acquired by the acquirer, and executor (the student robot operation controller) that makes the student robot execute the operation determined by the determiner.
Abstract:
