MyPSP Robotics 4.3.0 - turning Sony's handheld to a semi-autonomous robot

Engineers define their work as an art and a science, using both imagination and practicality to create the stuff of dreams. Italian developer ccpspita, who's more than just a PSP homebrew developer, started MyPSP Robotics with a simple vision in mind: build a semi-autonomous robot using Sony's PlayStation Portable.

But now that it has reached version 4.3.0, MyPSP Robotics is more than just a step closer to realization - it's brimming with features otherwise absent in this blogger's robotics prototype back in the day. In fact, the author is confident that version 4.3.0 is the final step for the software side of the project.

Piqued your interest, did we? Well then prepare for a delightful surprise, because here's a summarized run-down of the software side's features in MyPSP Robotics v4.3.0:

Speech synthesis and speech recognition backed up by two-way VVoIP (voice and video over IP) - simultaneous video and audio streaming;
Support for both networking over wireless access points (WAP) and Adhoc connection for PSP to PSP CC&C (communication, command and control), in line with ccpspita's implementation of MyPSP VVoIP Walkie Talkie;
A knowledge database for storing an established artificial intelligence (dubbed OpenMind Knowledge Base) and expandable through the prototype's learning process or assisted coding, implemented over SQLite 3; and,
Support for 3.XX-kernel custom firmwares without the need for 1.50 kernel integration.

The package holds a number of plugins that should not be traded off to flash0, but you're better off checking the installation information provided through the bundled documentation to see where to store them. Remember that this software set is the hammer to the proof of concept anvil, which has yet materialize as the prototype itself.

ccpspita designed this software set, called MyPSP Robotics, to serve as the soul of a robotic PSP. In essence, the robot will be a PSP attached to a set of actuators (arms, legs, or wheels) and sensor equipment (camera, speakers, or mic). Thus, the processor, memory, and power supply of the PSP will be part of the robot's hardware.

The project, as far as we can determine, will allow the robot PSP to accept and follow commands sent in from another PSP serving as a remote. And that's via wireless or adhoc.

In addition, the software set may allow you to command the robot via voice as well as allow the robot to speak.

It will also hold a camera that will feed live video streams to the PSP controlling it, though we are not sure if audio streams can be sent from the PSP remote control and played back at the robot itself.

Like a Lego MindStorm controller, the psp act as the instructor moving the arms and legs, or wheels or whatever.
