Meet Teddy, a programmable robotic teddy bear. You can make Teddy smart. How? You can teach it to walk, it can detect faces and objects, has a speaker to play sounds and music, has a microphone to recognize your voice, and other cool sensors!
What inspired you to make this project?:
Ever since I saw the movie A.I directed by Steven Spielberg, I knew I wanted the robot teddy bear from the movie. Once I learned about engineering, I decided to try to build my own since there was nothing really like it anywhere. Now we want people to learn to program Teddy and make it intelligent!
