pepper-android

A library that wraps some relevant Qi-APIs and simplifies these by abstraction layers. This library is under heavy development!

setup

Before you can use this lib on your Pepper you have to jailbreak them. Afterwards you can download the [Pepper SDK for Android Studio] (https://developer.softbankrobotics.com/us-en/downloads/pepper) and add this lib to your project.

example

First you have to change your App base class to "de.lilithwittmann.pepperandroid.RobotApplication" by setting an android:name in the AndroidManifest.xml. e.g.

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
        android:name="de.lilithwittmann.pepperandroid.RobotApplication"
        >
        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

Afterwards you can access the robot by getting an RobotManager from the Application.

// create or get a new Pepper Session from the application
final PepperSession session = ((RobotApplication)getActivity().getApplication()).getRobotManager().getSession();

final Say say = new Say(pepper);
       
// set body language e.g. random, none
say.setBodyLanguage(Say.BODY_LANGUAGE.RANDOM);

// say android resource ids (in different languages)
say.say(R.string.bitch);
say.setLanguage(Say.LANGUAGE.GERMAN).get();
say.say(R.string.bitch, true).get();
say.setLanguage(Say.LANGUAGE.ENGLISH).get();

 
// say something
say.say("Welcome to Pepper Android");
       

say.setLanguage(say.LANGUAGE_GERMAN).andThen(new FutureFunction<Object, Object>(){
	@Override
	public Future<Object> execute(Future<Object> future) throws Exception {
		say.say("Wilkommen bei Pepper für Android");
		return null;
	}
});

//subscribe to an event

AnyObject alm = session.getService("ALMemory");
// subscribe to the event
AnyObject touchEventListener = (AnyObject) alm.call("subscriber", "TouchChanged").get();

// connect to the signals
touchEventListener.connect("signal", new QiSignalListener() {
	@Override
	public void onSignalReceived(Object... objects) {

	    for(List<Object> o: (List<List<Object>>)objects[0]) {
		Log.d("Sensor", o.get(0).toString()+"  "+o.get(1).toString());
	    }
	    try {
		say.say("Oouuh");
	    } catch (Exception e) {
		e.printStackTrace();
	    }

	}
});


// use SpeechInteraction Library

SpeechInteraction speechInteraction = new SpeechInteraction(session);

speechInteraction.addVoiceCommand(new PhraseList("Hi Pepper", "Hello Pepper", "Hello"), new SpeechInteractionCallback() {
            @Override
            public void run(SpeechInteraction speechInteraction, String phrase) {
                speechInteraction.stopSpeechRecognition();
                try {
                    Say say = new Say(session);

                    say.setBodyLanguage(Say.BODY_LANGUAGE.RANDOM);
                    say.say("Hello human");

                } catch (Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        });
