Robotic F.A.C.E (Facial Alerting in a Communication Environment)

This robot, built at MIT, uses the head a toy called Yano. It uses three motors which are driven using six pulse width modulated signal. Consequently it has three DOFs. A PIC microprocessor on an iRX board is used to drive the motors and the sensors. This microprocessor in turn takes commands from a computer and the software for it is written in C. The computer program however is written in C.
