The robot has a super-crude vision system. It's nearly blind. It can see
faces, locate them in 3D space.  It has an Intel realsense thingy that
returns human body and hand position data, but its .. crude and
inadequate.  The realsense is not hooked up to the atomspace at the moment.
Perhaps we could steal some code or ideas from CogSketch or QSRlib.
(google those)

Sound: we have speech-to-text, via google.  It sort-of-ish works sort-of if
you have a good microphone, and no background noise. Otherwise, its not so
good.  It cannot tell if you are whispering, shouting, angry, serene. It
cannot tell if there is an audience that is clapping, booing. It cannot
tell if its in a crowded room or an empty room.

Turns out sensory input is a really hard problem.

Yeah, got a bunch of these subsystems, all doing different things.

Yeah, we call that the "chatbot" it doesn't think at all. It just does
bogus scripted responses.

We've got parts scattered about for that, partly assembled and partly
disassembled.  Its PLN and the rule engine and attention allocation and
other bits.
