Adith Jagadish Boloor

Adith Jagadish Boloor was born in Mangalore, India. He grew up tinkering with toys and gadgets that kindled his interest in how things work. His admiration for science and technology, specifically in the fields of robotics, 3D printing, and smart systems, grew into a passion that he is working towards, nurturing it into a career. He completed his higher studies at Purdue University, USA and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China and is working towards obtaining a masters degree in robotics. Adith has experience working on robots ranging from simple obstacle—avoiding robots built at home to complex humanoid robots such as the Darwin-OP in Purdue University's research lab. He has coauthored a research paper and has two patents on his name. He enjoys traveling and grabs every opportunity he can to explore the different parts of the world. He is also an international chess player.

Implementing speech control


We have already learned about Bluetooth and speech control in the previous chapters. In this chapter, we are going to merge them.

Connecting the HC-06 module

Just like in the burglar alarm project (Chapters 4 and 5), hook up the Bluetooth to the Arduino MEGA in the following manner:

Make sure you are connecting the Bluetooth module to the 3.3V of the MEGA, and not the 5V. Leave the rest of the servo wiring as it is.

Programming the Arduino

Now, open the robot_dog_speech.ino file. Just like before, change the servo center parameters to match your robot. Upload the program and connect the computer to the Bluetooth, using the instructions given in Chapter 5, Burglar Alarm – Part 2.

Setting up BitVoicer

Open up BitVoicer and use the commands as shown in the following screenshot:

In summary, the commands are as follows (integer type):

  • Stand up – 1

  • Sit down – 2

  • Shake hands – 3

Change the preferences of BitVoicer to match this image:

Note that the COM ports for you will be different...
