lawrencelm / larrybot Goto Github PK

it's a pretty complex problem technically speaking, but maybe I can find a simple solution. I could talk to some annyang developers to help me figure it out or post on stackoverflow

try my Blender model of lip syncing head

eg.: if edit distance <= 2, consider same word, instead of using == (or still use == for the sake of efficiency and then try run an edit distance function)

1. Ask for visitor's name or how she/he should be called. Also allow for "Call Me X" like Siri
2. Store response in db and have a boolean whose value is initially false. Switch the value to true, so I know I have the visitor's name
3. Somehow have this be unique for each visitor. Could use IP for this and for other settings/customizations in general. Just store each IP in db and then hash it as the object's ID so lookup will be more efficient

use NLP API to change js animation according to larry bot's emotion

1. figure out how to change speed of animation (done. solution: change var npoints I created in larrybody)
2. integrate sentiment analysis (alchemy API?) with the bot's replies
3. negative feelings -> faster. positive -> slower. neutral -> slightly faster. Timing = formula's timing

Note: how to integrate the sentiment number with the animation speed? Metaprogramming or global

make larry bot and use my own voice for the personal assistant. like transcendence

initial commands:

1. help navigate through website (using IDs) and find information (find words?)
2. find my resume. call me. message me. go to my social media pages
3. play music on onetune
4. FAQ (how old is Lawrence, when graduate, etc)
5. Might also want to use Google's APIs and Wolfram Alpha (look into this https://cranklin.wordpress.com/2012/01/13/building-my-own-siri-jarvis/ )
6. Add Parse accounts for personalized learning. ie.: can say "Call me X"
7. make it play The Imitation Game songs. They make you feel smart lol. I love "Alan" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVDQ9eHYJqk
8. fully integrate Larry Bot with OneTune

UI: make screen go dark like Siri and suggest some questions
UI: use "hidden" to make UI morph and look very smooth like SmartBox

Learning: send every text to Parse so it can store everything in db and learn from that
