Abstract: A method for toy robot programming, the toy robot including a set of sensors, the method including, at a user device remote from the toy robot: receiving sensor measurements from the toy robot during physical robot manipulation; in response to detecting a programming trigger event, automatically converting the sensor measurements into a series of puppeted programming inputs; and displaying graphical representations of the set of puppeted programming inputs on a programming interface application on the user device.

Abstract: Embodiments of a method and system for sharing toy robot programs enabling toy robots to interact with physical surroundings can include receiving a robot program; automatically processing a token for the robot program; and processing a program request for the robot program based on the token. The embodiments can additionally or alternatively include controlling a toy robot based on a robot program; recommending a robot program; publishing a robot program; processing modifications of robot programs S160; and/or any other suitable functionality.

Abstract: A method for robot interaction, preferably including: receiving a user input, determining a robot-associated response based on the user input, and presenting the robot-associated response. A system, preferably including: a robot, a conversation client, and a response module.

Abstract: A method for programmatic robot control including, at a user device: displaying a set of icons and receiving a program for a robot, wherein receiving a program for a robot includes receiving a selection of a state icon associated with a state; associating a transition with the state; and creating a relationship between the transition and an event. The method functions to provide a user with an environment for creating a program to control the robot, and can additionally function to control the robot.
