YKY, I'm happy to contribute design ideas to your "sensory front end" project. And if software development is required beyond what you can do yourself, and a small amount of funding is achieved for the project, members of my team could do the work at relatively low cost.
While this is not top-priority for AGI in my view, I do think it's interesting and valuable work. As I said, I think the kits at www.smartrobots.com look interesting. Building the right "API" for one of these things for AGI systems to interface with would be a worthwhile project ... and then building/integrating some appropriate perceptual pre-processing tools, etc. -- Ben G -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Yan King Yin Sent: Wednesday, September 22, 2004 12:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [agi] proposal: Sensory Front-End I think the time is now right to develop a sensory frontend. It need not be very sophisticated, or with high resolution, but the point is to let AGIs learn physical concepts such as space-time, objects, colors, etc. After the AGI has learned natural languages the input can be entirely textual. I think it is better to invest time in sensory interfacing instead of SIM, because ultimately you will need a sensory interface. But I can understand that not everyone has as much time and motivation to develop it. Let me stress again that the sensory interface, which can serve as an AGI platform, may be commercially very profitable =) Anyone interested can email me.
