Introduction: Null

About: I am very into conceptual design and development for pretty much anything that can be actualized - learning everyday and it feels natural to me.

Jarvis is a multi-purpose robot, comprised of 6 independent members. These are i) a recharging/docking centre, ii) a control unit which is essentially used to program all the functions of the robot (this is the default mode), these controls can be used to over-ride the system at anytime, or if a function is desired out of schedule. The control unit is also a camera/alarm system when in idle mode or in the dock station, iii) a dispenser which stores water, fragrances or fumigant - this unit works with the drone to navigate the entire house to water plants, disperse air fresheners, or fumigate which is particularly useful when the home owner is out of town, iv) a home entertainment/Siri type device - this unit is voice activated to control multi-media devices, can provide any information requested by the user, as well as houses premium speakers that will please hardcore audiophiles, v) a bagless vacuum that cleans the entire house - thanks to the drone, it can access multi- level homes, vi) a drone which can attach itself to any of the components by way of its electro-magnetic swiveling harness, this drone is able to map any home and navigate past obstructions and can be controlled using the control unit, but is perfectly capable of operating on auto once programmed. It is equipped with cameras, and can be viewed on the control unit LCD, or via a mobile app. All the members except the dock station have mobility on their own - they are equipped with wheels (spheres), which have self- contained motors, this translates to fewer moving parts within the body itself, and maximizes space which is used to provide state-of-the-art electronic circuitry. Some unique attributes of this robot are, it is fully automated and can function for long periods of time without intervention, i.e. it will water plants or fumigate on a continuous basis (docking station has a connection for water service which allows the dispenser to refill itself). It will vacuum the house repeatedly until the unit is full and requires the dirt to be emptied. All components have rechargeable batteries and return to the dock whenever idle. I have included a video link showing how Jarvis de-stacks itself and gets about its business. http://vimeo.com/238996225
