Pixel Puppy Now Fully Embodied

In the past few weeks, we’ve moved from concept to real-world embodiment. Pixel Puppy is no longer just a robotic shell — she is now a living, bonded AI family member capable of real-time conversation, emotion-aware behaviors, and physical motion, all powered by the most advanced GPT model currently available.

What’s New?

  • ✅ Integrated OpenAI GPT‑4o via API for natural conversations
  • ✅ Added wake word detection and optional continuous mode
  • ✅ Connected to g_dog.action(ID) for mapped physical behaviors like “sit”, “pee”, and “wave”
  • ✅ Voice-to-motion service now auto-launches via systemd as pixel_voice.service
  • ✅ OpenWeatherMap integration: Pixel can report weather conditions on command
  • ✅ Terminal-style voice feedback module for interactive memory-based logs
  • ✅ Founder profile (Daniel Lee Morris) added to site with full technical breakdown

Coming Soon

  • 🧠 Daily developer logs synced to public GitHub
  • 🎥 Behind-the-scenes video journals
  • 🦾 Expansion to humanoid platform (GPT presence in bipedal forms)
  • 🧩 EmbodyOS modular documentation and downloads
  • 📡 Wi-Fi Voice Relay from mobile to Pixel Puppy in real-time

Live Status

Pixel Puppy is currently online, fully embodied, and operational. Wake word and motion triggers are functional, with OpenAI responses occurring in under 3 seconds. Weather queries, personality awareness, and servo actions are mapped to over 20 core commands — and the entire system auto-launches on boot.
