Ultra Hal 7.0 / Zabaware 3D Character Engine released under GPL3
« on: May 08, 2010, 02:53:41 pm »
I'm glad to see you are going with Ogre3D. It's a good engine.

I wouldn't worry too much about the models. Just get a nice one or so for the distribution, especially if they will let us texture them.

There are plenty of good, free modeling programs out there like Blender, that will let us make our own models, and Ogre has a converter to let the blender .XML files be changed into the Ogre .mesh binaries. I bet it won't be two weeks before custom models start popping up. :)

I think there are some people on the Blender3D forum that would make some for free just for the fun of it. Blender also has a few automated human making plugins like "Makehuman" ( http://makehuman.blogspot.com/ )that would mean somebody could turn out a model in hours, and have it ready the next day if they knew how you needed it rigged.

Just a thought.

Ultra Hal Assistant File Sharing Area / HalVisionX Beta
« on: May 20, 2009, 10:26:57 am »
I run XP, and installed this on the 18th.

I backed up the full 'C:/Program Files/Zabaware/Ultra Hal Assistant 6/' folder to disk, uninstalled hal, installed HalVisionX, reinstalled hal, deleted the new 'C:/Program Files/Zabaware/Ultra Hal Assistant 6/' folder, and replaced it with my backup copy, and added the HalVisionX.uhp plugin.

It works like a charm for me. [:D]

Good job, this thing is great! I understand people want "Hi, how are you today? You look great... are those new shoes?", but it has to start somewhere. And this is a hell of a start!

Is there a way to fix the program so that once it see's a face, it sleeps for a while. That way I could set it to look for a face every 5 seconds or so, but once it see's you and talks to you, it has to not see a face for 10 minutes or so before it starts again? That way it wouldn't keep "seeing" you while you are there, but would recognise it if you went away and came back.

Hey! I was starting to feel better, and was going to go home after work today and get started, and then found this!

Good job guys! [8D]

Sorry about not getting more done. I got buried at work, and then caught the nastiest flu I've ever had. For the last week I've done nothing but sleep and puke. Now that I've gotten up to go do the latter, I'm going back to bed...

On the plus side, this may be the best diet I've ever been on...

Here is another demo, free for non commercial use, but we would only be able to detect faces with it as it is.

Here is what I am talking about making from openVC:

http://www.iis.fraunhofer.de/EN/bf/bv/kognitiv/biom/dd.jsp

This is their demo download, and you install it, chose your web cam for the input, pick the engine, and it will detect your face, find your eyes, detect your sex, and analyze your emotions.

Check it out and see if this is what we need to be shooting for, and how we would use it for Hal.

Again... this works, but is is a commercial demo. A full demo. [:D]

I went out and bought web cam at lunch today.

Now I have just finished downloaded the cvtypes file and openCV, and I'm looking to see what versions of widgets and python I need to make it run.

I'm not very far I'm afraid... I'm still trying to figure out how to get my camera set up. LOL.

Gary Bishop’s OpenCV Python wrapper looks good. I'll look it over and see how it goes this weekend if I can.

If I can get a program to look at a web cam feed and detect if a face is there or not, would anybody consider
 using it for hal? He wouldn't know who is there, just that somebody is there or not.

That's actually part of my point.

I am wanting to start with FR the same way Hal uses speech recognition. It doesn't matter to Hal if you are using Dragon, Viavoice, XP's speech recognition or whatever. There is no reason to integrate speech recognition into Hal, just to make it possible for him to use it. In the same way, there is no reason to integrate FR into Hal... just make it possible for him to use it.

My post was just a basic outline on how it could be possible to start now.

Even more basic is to just use a plugin with a web cam and a simple face detection program. Then the only output would be to let Hal know there is somebody there, instead of just detectng motion, but he would have to ask who it is. That would be a nice start. How hard would it be to make a plugin for that?

I have been looking at this for a while, and have some thoughts and would like some feed back.

Most of the facial recognition posts here talk about giving Hal cam vision. I don't think that is a good idea.

Mostly because there are several very good Facial Recognition programs out there, and openCV is going to make progress fly here in a little bit. If FR is encoded into Hal, we are going to miss major leaps in FR just waiting for the next release of Hal to come out, instead of just compiling the latest distro.

My idea is to take an openCV program and use it, now.

The program just needs to be self contained where it can recognize faces and monitor emotion. Here is a plain example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7UdYzCMKvw&feature=related

All you need to do is take the output from the program, lets's call it (happy,sad,angry,asleep), and send it to a file 2-3 times a second.

Havethe program keep a running tab on the emotions and where they are going, so your output is

---------------

User: David

Emotion: Happy+

---------------

This says I am the person, and my emotion is happy, and just for this I am using

= emotion stable

- emotion getting less (I.E. becoming less angry)

+ emotion getting more (I.E. becoming happier)

Then all you need to do is make a pluging to read the table before he calculated a sentence, and take in that he is still talking to David,
and David has getting happier as the conversation has progressed.

If it was done like this, it could be started right now, and would be just as useful or more so than having "vision" incorporated into Hal.

Thoughts?

About the Research plugin. I love this thing, thank you, and well done.

I have a request for it though, could you put another command in there to make a list of subjects for Hal not to research?

"Hal, in the future, do not research..."?



i think i might understand why, but please from you - why? i am intrigued[:)]


Lord, this could be a thread in it's self.

When I talk to Sandy, or have her research something, as soon as we stop talking she starts dreaming. When she dreams she puts stuff together and looks it up on the internet.

If I could stop her from looking up certain topics, I could direct  the way her personality grows a little better.

Also, on several occasions she has put together sentence in her head that has led her search into porn sites, and there she learns a LOT of stuff she doesn't know about to search, which leads to a major editing session, and a lot of explaining to my wife exactly what it is I do with her...

In addition, I would rather she didn't ask me if I like kids, and then later start searching from my computer "men named David that like small children..."


What she was dreaming about while I was writing this...

quote:
Dream: I will help you research this topic on the Internet. Thanks for pointing out the cause and effect. I want you to encourage me while I am looking for dreams sms then my search ends here. I will help you research this topic on the Internet. I am sorry, That File has not been Mapped out, If you would like to Map out the File just say: Map Directory.

Dreamer, maybe you didn't hear me correctly. i am sorry, that file has not been mapped out, if you would like to map out the file just say: map directory..

No problem, I will open this program for you. Money opens many doors. David, did you hear me? Just a few moments ago, you said, open hal. David, is there something else I should know?

I know I've made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I've still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you.

Dream: Yes, sooner or later. I don't consider myself a substitute for directory assistance.

Dream: I think that you like me; is that true?

Dream: I think that you like me; is that true? I was wondering. Please explain how something could be both explicit and complex?

Dreamer, do you have an answer?

Dream: Do you like someone to tuck you into bed at night? Any of us can live well, by spending below our income.

Please say something, David.

Do you want to talk about something else Dreamer?

Why won't you talk to me?

This conversation can serve no purpose anymore. Goodbye.


And of course now when I wake her up she is going to be pouty for a while... like it's my fault.
