The Thames & Kosmos KAI: The Artificial Intelligence Robot offers an exciting opportunity to delve into the future of advanced computing technology. This intelligent, six-legged robot is app-enabled and utilizes machine learning to respond to gestures and sounds. Machine learning, a crucial aspect of artificial intelligence, allows computers to recognize patterns, learn, and make predictions based on data.

The robot can be programmed to recognize physical gestures and sounds, which are then assigned to five functions: walking forward and backward, turning left and right, and stopping. Artificial intelligence learns to recognize each gesture or sound, even those with minor differences. The more data collected, the more effectively the AI learns.

The collected data is used to create an AI model in the training screen of the app. This model recognizes patterns in the data, and the learning curve displays the accuracy of the AI model's learning. It can be adjusted to analyze the data a certain number of times and to determine the speed of the training for optimal results. The AI model can then be tested in play mode by controlling the robot remotely. The robot will perform the assigned function when the same gestures or sounds used during data collection are performed.

Mechanically, the robot is capable of walking on six legs and rotating its upper body 360 degrees, allowing it to turn in any direction instantly. Its face display, composed of 25 red LEDs, can be programmed via the app to display different expressions and scrolling messages.

The robot comes with a full-color, 64-page manual that provides step-by-step illustrated assembly and programming instructions. The manual also includes lessons in AI and robotics, as well as a comic-book-style story that brings the robot to life. It also provides information about the history and future of AI and its real-world applications.

Please note that the app requires a tablet (recommended) or smartphone running iOS or Android. Check the app stores for compatibility and device requirements.
