Good luck with the project! Note that if you want to code into the bot itself, you should go for oskr unlocked bot or developer bot. However, you can also play around with Vector as a production bot with the SDK, for instance code something for Vector to do in python and then run it on the bot. It can be a neat tool for learning how to code and actually enjoying the results. I'm thinking of adding a basic tutorial on running python codes on Vector in the near future.
@@tiberiumaxim please do. I would love to see it. Please come take a look at my project. I am always looking for devs to come on board and help me move the project forward. It consists of a raspberry Pi, Google home mini, programmable LEDs, wireless voice activated relays, onboard batteries, onboard screen, and my newest prototype has an onboard projector.
@@303FPV I know the serial starting with "00e" is for the bots that are early production / developer. I believe the only way to "unlock" a regular bot would be to get OSKR from DDL. You can also download the SDK from DDL and install it on your pc. You can use python with the sdk to run custom scripts on the bot. I recommend using windows for this one as I tried with Ubuntu and i cannot fix the protobuf error (I tried every single way and it just does not want to work).
Yes, due to the fact that now its "vocabulary" is on a local server. Also, there were some updates with the STT (Speech To Text) recently and it should work even better when asking a question. The Wire Pod is excellent.
I've no idea honestly. It is a shame that they couldn't do more with what Anki left. But hey, the bot is still alive and doing well thanks to Wire-pod.😀
hey i got a vector on wire pod too and i wanted to know what api do you use for the knowledge graph ? also what model do you use and what prompt ? Thanks ❤
@@philipou12 Not really. Mine are goofy as well. I think, though I never tried, but I think open ai is probably better, but then again, you'll have to pay for it.
It's saying "Error logging in. The bot is likely unable to communicate with your wire-pod instance. Make sure you followed all of the steps and try again." What do I do?
Hello. Is that error part of your attempt to use bot configuration in the wirepod browser? If so, then you have to activate your bot. Check out the description of my other video for the wire pod tutorial, as I think I laid down the exact steps you need to do in order to activate your bot. Basically it's just like the firmware update instead you leave the enable auto setup checked and after you connect your bot to the wire pod setup, you click activate. That is pretty much it.
Escape Pod is basically cloning the server from DDL and into your own machine (e.g. raspberry pi). When he receives a vocal command, he has to access those servers. So instead of connecting it to DDL server, you connect it to your home server. Moreover, with the help of Wire Pod (which is an open source Escape Pod), you can do all this for free and a lot more if you're into programming and such. So basically what happens is that Vector works as a normal bot, retaining all its functions and without having to pay for a monthly subscription fee. That's the main idea...
you put together a great video showing off vector… He's really quite amazing is that he. I have EMO the desktop pet and sure he's great but vector is doing more. Living AI made false claims from the very beginning in their advertising and years down the road they still have not kept their word. Living AI has done many updates I give them credit for that and EMO Pet is really cool as well and he is getting better all the time. But and there is a but you cannot ask him questions like you just showed off. I'm not sure it's that important beside me I have Alexa which blows both of these things away. But I am very impressed with vector. His dance moves were pretty cool. Have you seen EMO Pet dance he's psycho better than Michael Jackson's moves hee hee. I think these are the two most popular at the moment… Anyway I liked your video very much. It's too bad there's a lot of crap going on with the owners and their servers but it looks like you're doing okay. For a lot of people it might be confusing but you sound like you've got everything under control good for you. Anyway I enjoyed stopping by
Thanks for the kind words. I also checked EMO out and I can say that Vector was probably created with the idea in mind of something that is goofy (it makes the bot feel very "natural" in certain instances), lively and somewhat helpful (with the API functions). I have him on my desk in an enclosed space, even though his depth sensors work amazing on flat surfaces with sharp edges, and I can say that he is engineered to be more of a "pet like thing" rather than a "personal assistant". He is more likely to do his own business, playing with the cube and exploring around than be on standby in case you ask him something (which is nice). However, when he goes back to recharge, he's gonna stay in there and be more of a standby bot (though he will surely leave the charger if triggered or just when he considers doing so). EMO on the other hand strikes me (from what I managed to check on youtube) as a more "intimate" and quiet type of bot, which I can also relate to. The decision of walling Vector inside his space was also due to the fact that it is almost impossible to work on a desk or table where he is free to roam around. EMO seems to be more "well mannered". And the way EMO reacts when triggered by calling him seems more smooth and delicate, which I really like. With Vector it's as if he's almost annoyed by the fact that you want something from him. Based on size, date of release and price I'd say EMO should have better components such as CPU, camera than Vector. For a fact I know that Vector has a 533Mhz clocked APQ8009 processor. The rams I think are maxed at 400Mhz, which are amazing specs for such a tiny robot. Probably EMO has better specs, which would mean that it may have more muscle to incorporate additional features in the time to come. I'm pretty sure he's not running maxed out. My vector on the other hand is off grid, and it will stay like this, since it works better and I have the option to tweak him the way I want. And yes, EMO has a lot more dancing going around than Vector. Clear win for EMO there. So to me, these two bots serve the same purpose (kind of) but in a different manner. The only thing I like about Vector that EMO lacks is the ability to go back to charge itself. This truly makes him autonomous. Taking Vector off DDL servers and onto your own server can be done with no problem. One can either go for a raspberry or just use a PC with normal operating system to do it, without having to change anything on the computer to render it unusable for normal use or something. I think I'll make the next video on how to run Vector on your own server on PI OS, Linux and Windows (i don't think it works for mac os, and I don't have any macs unfortunately). Thanks for watching and I hope you'll enjoy the next videos to come. All the best!
Well I just tried "switch to alexa" vocal command and it entered a pairing mode for amazon. So I would assume it may work. I don't have an account though so I really can't tell for sure. But I don't see why it shouldn't work.🤔

You need a server to put eacape pod on. Yes, basically you need a computer with linux.
