Whether you're a long-time robotics enthusiast, a fan of AI programming or a computer science student thinking of writing a term paper on Pleo then we want you to explore Pleo to the fullest. If your Pleo fascination keeps you up at night creating new Pleo traits, you're welcome here. And if you'd like to design an animation or tool for Pleo, then this is the place for you too! |
Life OS
In bringing Pleo to life, we set out to create a Life Form capable of organic and realistic movement, autonomous behavior, adaptive learning, and expressive personality through emotional responses.
 |
"Life OS" is the complex software platform that enables Pleo's mechanical, electronic, sensory, and AI systems to interact to allow Pleo to react to you and his environment and develop his own unique personality.
|
Pleo Development Kit
The Pleo Development Kit will make it possible for you to creatively
interact with Pleo on the programming level. Whether you are a casual
hobbyist or hardcore hacker, you'll be supported at a level that makes
your personalization of Pleo rewarding and fun. You'll be able to tap
into your creativity to modify his behaviors, tweak an animation or
completely reinvent him. Will you design a new neural network learning
algorithm, or to add a cool sound effect? The PDK will make
personalization rewarding and fun.
Please be sure to check out our forum to hear the latest on the PDK, which will be available soon.

Resources for Developers
We now have a set of resources for developers to begin to learn about
how Pleo works. These documents are intended for experienced C
programmers to get a general understanding of the process by which
applications are written for Pleo.
Pawn Scripting in Life OS v1.0 (PDF,
556 k)
Pleo Joint Diagram (PDF, 1.1 MB)
FAQs
With this information you can begin to learn about how to program Pleo
and get ready for the release of the Pleo Developers Kit (PDK) later
this year.
Developer Forums
We want Pleoworld to become a community where fellow dreamers share
visions and creations that enrich everybody's Pleo experience. OK, maybe
that sounds a bit over the top. But we are expecting enthusiastic
innovation, lively exchanges, and a dash of ingenuity. People are
already on the Forums discussing everything from the boundaries of
speech recognition and the ethics of AI pets to suggestions for UGOBE's
next project. We've set up a new thread called PLEO Downloads for all these technical discussions - do join in!
