Patin is compatible with ROS and consists of a movable base</span><br><span>with an autonomously behaving AI. Various functions can be connected to</span><br><span>it such as lighting or planting. Patin’s AI can behave autonomously by</span><br><span>integrating lightings mounted on it or responding to the request of</span><br><span>plant care. We believe Patin can introduce new viewpoint to existing</span><br><span>products in our daily life such as thinking illumination or thinking</span><br><span>green. In this talk we will explain the overall structure of Patin and</span><br><span>its SDK for developing applications on it. The talk also includes live</span><br><span>demonstrations on how to use the SDK.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Speaker bio:</span><br><span>Dr. Yoshikai Graduated and received doctor of Information Science and</span><br><span>Technology, from University of Tokyo in 2005.
