Kortexino Bot

The Cortex Pro is a sophisticated robot that tracks your face and moves back and forth to maintain a precise distance from you. Cortex Pro also responds to your facial expressions and can read your emotions. The iPhone combined with the [Cortex Pro app](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/cortex-pro/id1466081701) is the brain of Cortex Pro. The advanced 3D sensors on iPhone X or higher are used to measure facial expressions, 3D face position and orientation, and the built-in compass and gyroscope are used to measure Cortex Pro's orientation. This information is transmitted to the Arduino microcontroller to control the two wheels. The project was developed with a high degree of customizability in mind. The Cortex Pro app handles all the heavy lifting via augmented reality-based 3D awareness and neural networks built into iPhone, and it simply transmits the most important sensor data via Bluetooth to the Arduino board. The navigation algorithms are directly programmed via the Arduino IDE and therefore offer a very high level of flexibility. This flexibility is demonstrated in coding challenges, where various behaviors are programmed, which depend on 3D face position or facial expressions. Just a few lines of code are sufficient to program interesting behaviors. Due to the high level of flexibility of the Cortex Pro app, any project that can receive Bluetooth signals can easily be controlled by the advanced sensor data offered by iPhone X.
