Growing Up with NAO the Robot :)

Assalamualaikum and hi!

 It is a beautiful day here in Shah Alam. Let's surround ourselves with positive vibes and happy thoughts.

 Now, this blog is sort of my on-line diary about my journey as a research student since 2011. Earlier today my mind keeps remembering about the first semester I spent in UiTM as a student.
Back in 2011, our research team in HuRoBs had only one NAO robot. The NAO V3.
 But this grey robot has been very good to us. I love it to bits.

Then in 2012, the NAO V4 (NextGen) was launched.


So we got to obtain one of our own :)




2014: introducing NAO V5. Recently we took the chance to explore its face detection and recognition algorithm. FYI, NAO V5 comes with a new Choregraphe software suite (V 2.0) that is also compatible with Aldebaran Romeo and Pepper.




I noticed that the V5 comes with a new voice which is smoother but sounds more girl-like. Hmm.

Yesterday I saw a post on the hooding ceremony (again) when my other half was browsing through IPSis UiTM's FB page. IPSis wrote that 52 PhD graduates had successfully completed their studies in UiTM and will receive their scroll in the 81st convocation ceremony.

It is simply a ceremony held for students graduating with a master’s or PhD degree. The placing of the hood signifies the passage from student to 'master's' or ‘PhD'. The hooding ceremony and recognition of students’ accomplishments draw attention to the scholarly and the personal achievements of the candidates for g...
