The Geekbot Advanced with BrainOS is here! This is a special edition of our Geekbot Platform powered by Brain Corporation’s BrainOS. This robot can be controlled via an iPhone App or set to run autonomously. The Geekbot uses a Raspberry Pi to process image data from its RobotGeek Webcam and traverse obstacles in its environment.

Brain Corporation’s work on BrainOS is unique because they are designing a system that is intended to be trained instead of programmed. The idea is that there are tasks that are far easier to ‘train’ a robot to perform vs program the robot to perform. Brain OS is great for service robots that need to interact with their environment in a complex fashion. Training can be shared among multiple robots, allowing you to deploy a whole swarm of BrainOS based robots!
