FEEDIE (pronounced /ˈfi:di/, combination of feed and foodie) is a feeding robot specially designed for people who couldn't eat or drink independently. According to our survey, over 15% of the families have at least one person who couldn't take care of himself and over 20% of them have a great demand for a robot to help them. One can interact and control the robot by natural language instructions. After receiving message from a user, FEEDIE can extract keywords from the instructions, find what the user want on the table, and feed it into his mouth.
Our core techniques consist of Speech Recognition, Image Recognition, Grabbing Algorithm and Human Computer Interaction.
