Abstract: A servo actuator default disconnected ID setting method is performed by a servo actuator controlling system, which includes a plurality of servo actuators. A first message is broadcasted which indicates that an original ID is replaced with a non-default-disconnected to the plurality of servo actuators. The original ID of each actuator is replaced with the non-default-disconnected according to the first message. A second message is broadcasted which indicates that the non-default-disconnected ID is replaced with a default disconnected ID. And the non-default-disconnected ID of each servo actuator is replaced with the default disconnected ID according to the second message.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a servo of an entertainment robot that includes a servo main body and a servo plate. The servo main body includes a casing and an output shaft. The casing is a hexahedron. The servo plate is fixed to the output shaft of the servo main body. The servo plate includes a square drive plate. At least one surface of the servo main body includes a T slot having an opening at one end. The size of the T slot matches the size of the drive plate of the servo plate. Tools are not needed for assembling/disassembling during the assembling of entertainment robots, thereby reducing the complexity during assembling, lowering the assembly difficulty, simplifying the assembling process, increasing the joy of DIY, and providing more space for the users to bring into play their imaginations.

Abstract: A face detecting and tracking method includes: acquiring an image and performing a depth detection for the image to obtain a depth value of each pixel of the image; determining one or more face candidate areas based on depth value of each pixel of the image of current frame; performing a face detection to the one or more face candidate areas to determine one or more face boxes of the image of current frame; and determining a tracking box of the image of current frame based on the one or more face boxes and a tracked face box, and tracking the face in the tracking box of the image of current frame.

Abstract: A toy building block robot and a main control box thereof are disclosed. The main control box comprises a toy building-block robot main control housing, a toy building-block robot main control board, and a battery. The toy building-block robot main control board is installed in the toy building-block robot main control housing. The battery is connected to the toy building-block robot main control board, so as to supply power to the toy building-block robot main control board. A plurality of connection mechanisms are disposed on the toy building-block robot main control housing for engaging the toy building-block robot main control housing with other components of the toy building block robot. In the present disclosure, whether the assembly of the components in the main control box, or the engagement between the main control box and other components of the toy building block robot, can both be realized through a connection mechanism.

Abstract: A servo includes a servo casing, a servo cover connected to the servo casing, a circuit board, a light emitting member, and a light guide. The servo cover and the servo casing defines a receiving space. The circuit board is received in the receiving space. The light emitting member is arranged on the circuit board and electrically coupled to the circuit board. The light emitting member is capable of emitting light according to signals indicative of a motion state from the circuit board. The light guide includes a light incident surface that is located adjacent to the light emitting member, and a light exit surface that is exposed to an external surface of the servo cover.

Abstract: A servo and a robot with the servo are provided. The servo comprises a power input apparatus with a first output shaft, a deceleration apparatus, and a power output mechanism. The deceleration apparatus comprises a first-stage deceleration mechanism and a second-stage deceleration mechanism. The power output mechanism comprises a second output shaft and an output bearing fixedly installed on the second output shaft, wherein the second output shaft is an external spline output shaft. Through the external spline output shaft and the output bearing disposed on the power output mechanism, the servo could directly connect with an exterior component through the external spline output shaft, and the strength is improved. As a result, the friction between the servo and the exterior component is reduced, and the lifetime is therefore increased.
