RoboQueen (Halloween Edition)

As you have all heard about the famous RoboQueen of the Engineering department, made by our own Women Engineers, we decided to introduce a Halloween Version as well! It is a work in progress overall but for the Halloween Edition automated spooky sounds were inputted into the speech of RoboQueen. For some of you who don’t know about RoboQueen below is some general information on it.

Roboqueen is a multidisciplinary project based in the Computer Engineering Technology department under the supervision of Professor F. Zia. It is a robotic mannequin that can move it’s head and arms and it can speak. It can connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth and to software services running in the cloud via WiFi. It is being developed as a research platform for applications in several areas such as:

Interactive mannequin to be used in social robotics research projects
Display model for e-textiles, wearable technology and fashion technology
Cloud and mobile device application programming
3D physical modeling and design
Computer controlled system design
Electromechanical design
Wireless networking
