Dual Brain: Google Gemini Live Multimodal + Bio-Inspired Spatial Engine

Embodied AI Companion Robot Powered by Gemini & Physarum Spatial Intelligence

Fusing high-level cognitive understanding with bio-inspired spatial adaptability. Engineered with a Rockchip RV1126B Linux compute core, dual Sony IMX415 vision, expressive GC9A01 circular eye displays, and holonomic mobility.

RV1126B Embedded Rust Core Daemon Gemini Live WSS Adaptive Slime Engine

Multimodal Cognition Meets Bio-Inspired Navigation

Harmonizing live duplex Gemini Live voice, Sony IMX415 visual context, acoustic DoA gaze tracking, and adaptive spatial conductivity networks.

Algorithmic Innovation

Bio-Inspired Adaptive Spatial Network Engine

Inspired by Physarum polycephalum dynamics. Rather than static graph searches, our custom Rust engine models space as a flux-driven continuous conductivity field for dynamic obstacle bypass and adaptive corridor discovery.

Flux-Driven Adaptation

Employs potential difference equations and non-linear conductivity updates: high-demand corridors reinforce while dormant paths decay smoothly over time.

dD/dt = η|Q|^α - γD

Native Rust Optimization

Engineered from scratch in Rust with zero heavy framework bloat. Built for zero-cost abstraction, predictable memory latency, and future cross-compilation onto ARM edge targets.

Jacobi Solver • Modular Crates

Google Cloud Scale Simulations

Leveraging Google Cloud compute clusters for large-scale Monte Carlo parameter sensitivity sweeps, benchmarking candidate channel generation before physical embedded deployment.

Vertex AI • Batch Simulation

Holistic Companion Experience

Seamless integration of natural conversation, visual perception, and expressive physical embodiment.

Duplex Gemini Live Voice

Real-time bidirectional speech streams with seamless user barge-in and audio cancellation. Children converse spontaneously with zero awkward waiting.
