Build a voice-based AI toy
Maker Faire Bay Area 2026
September 25th-27th
Age recommendation for this workshop is >12 years old. Participants under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
In this workshop, you will each create a palm-sized, AI-powered conversational robot (think–toy, assistant, or something to add to your own robots), and you'll get to take it home with you!
Experience the complete Physical AI workflow, from creating your AI agent and connecting it to hardware to interacting through real-time voice, vision, edge AI, and memory. Whether you're building robots, AI companions, smart devices, or IoT products, you'll leave with practical experience and a working prototype!
