Motion Control

A 17-degree-of-freedom servo network, driven by a 1 kHz torque loop and a 9-axis IMU, gives Yanshee the agility and balance of a much larger humanoid.

Walks, sidesteps and dances with smooth, human-like motion
Performs push-ups, rises after a fall and holds yoga-style poses for demos
Ships with a scripted motion library so students trigger complex moves in one line of code

Machine Vision

An 8 MP HD camera streams real-time video to an on-device AI pipeline for fully offline perception tasks.

Detects and tracks faces, objects and gestures without cloud latency
Returns bounding boxes, IDs and confidence scores via the Vision API in milliseconds
Supports colour and QR recognition for quick classroom challenges and competitions

Intelligent Voice

A dual-speaker array and noise-cancelling mic enable fluent, multilingual conversations right out of the box.

Wake-word detection, TTS and ASR run locally to keep data private and interaction snappy
Custom voice commands instantly trigger motions, LEDs or data logging
Built-in NLP lets students prototype chatbots and dialogue systems without extra hardware

Open Hardware

A Raspberry Pi 3B paired with an STM32 co-processor exposes full Linux & ROS access for advanced development.

Six magnetic POGO ports and a 40-pin GPIO header accept LiDARs, grippers and custom boards—no soldering required
Public STEP files, schematics and firmware updates on GitHub encourage true maker-grade tinkering
Comprehensive APIs control LEDs, sensors and offline commands so every component becomes a teachable asset
