Welcome to our CS 495 Capstone Project’s documentation!

We are the Cloud Robotics team, working with a robot dog called the PuppyPi. The robot was developed by HiWonder with an accompanying app. For our Capstone Project, our team has implemented a vocal command system that executes the commands existing in the app, as well as a few other capabilities.

Check out the usage section for further information, including how to install the project.
