Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Robot voice box
If on a walker, use with a suitable sensor (mercury switch/side mounted
feelers) to indicate falling down. Use with a VOX (sound activated
switch circuit) to respond to loud noises around - If you had a voice
chip, you could make it say "Hey turn it down" or something. Use a
temperature sensor (mounted on the motor driver chip/transistor) to
indicate/say "I am hot, give me some rest". If using batteries, use
with a voltage detector to indicate/say "change my battery" or "I am
hungry now"
Just some suggestions.

The only local store I know of to deal with is the rat shack, and we all
know where that is getting me ;)
