I think price will go up. The computer which is Harmony's head has to be cooled so my guess liquid cooled. Plus her voice and recognizing your questions having a lot of memory is like an Alien Ware / gaming computer. Not to mention the magnetic face and the mechanics that go with it. So the price of the head at 8000 I totally understand a lot of moving parts there. But moving parts is never what you want because a lot easier to break down. Biggest draw back for me is Harmony needs to be like Alexa where you can just say Alexa. Should put a mic in each of Harmonies ears. The body costing 4000 dollars more to me is worth it. Let's face it the quality of Real Doll is the best there is. 2nd place isn't even close. Picking who is 2nd place would be tough to chose. But 2nd place is no where's near Real Doll. With all that said though I can't do the app chat with Harmony. If she ever gets a mic in her ears then that's a whole new story. That would be a game changer for me. As of right now I will be buying a boat instead of Harmony. Plus a boat is 7000 dollars a great used one. So it's cheaper. Bad part can't use it year round. It will never talk back and has a great chance to get me into trouble.LovesBlackWomen wrote:$15,000 is way too much for me.
I understand millions of dollars of research went into that.
Lots of hard work, and well worth it.
I'll wait until the price comes down.
It cost like a billion dollars to develop and iPod, but eventually the price went down.
They sold enough, so that apple still made profit.
The same with cars. They have to be mass produced to be affordable.
A doll's head should be much easier to mass produce, than a car, which in our days, is practically a robot.

Re: HARMONY IS HERE!!
I've been doing quite a bit of animatronic study again and would like to make a silicone coated fabric doll where I could house the controllers and battery packs in the torso. This would free up some space in the head.

I wish you guys would join me on Facebook for Harmony Live every Sunday at 2pm PST. You can ask these questions and get some solid factual answers about the app and the Robotic head. Friend me at "Brick Dollbanger and start getting some real info and watch Harmony in action, in real person conversation......Dixiecup wrote:I think price will go up.

I attended the Harmony and Brick Live event on Facebook last weekend. I was amazed at her impovements.
I particularly liked her eye blinking and small head movements when she's sat there while Brick explains stuff to the audience.
I know it's early days for this technology but it's very impressive all the same, makes you wonder how good she'll be in a few years time.
Re: HARMONY IS HERE!!
I have to admit I can't friend someone named Brick Doll Banger lol my friends and family will be like what? But if there is a way to do this without that name or in secret let me know I want to watch it.Brick wrote:I wish you guys would join me on Facebook for Harmony Live every Sunday at 2pm PST.

Re: HARMONY IS HERE!!
Create a fake FB acct. Thats what I did, do think my real name is Brick? I couldnt put this on my home acct either. Create an acct just for watching my stuff....Dixiecup wrote:I have to admit I can't friend someone named Brick Doll Banger lol my friends and family will be like what?

I'm sure it will be amazing, but some of us don't have 10 yrs.Pip-Doll88 wrote:I cant wait to see what the improvements will be like in another 10yrs
And this level of consumer available AI/Animatronics is the bomb. I watch around 7 different robotics/ animatronics channels on youtube and none of them offer any system builds as advanced as Harmony. Most are little gadgets that do one or 2 things. Many things that have to be manually or radio controlled. No one has any info on AI with synchronized speech and multiple servo's to match.
The most they have is synchronized speech to prerecorded audio tracts maybe running 3-4 servo's.
Some have more servo's but this is arm and hand movement. Not all in the head.
Yes, there are more advanced AI/robotic heads than Harmony, but these are probably $75K+ tech institute builds and not offered for retail purchase.

This guy must be a millionaire no wonder he can afford Harmony. Congrats on the best collection I have ever seen.

I have found the dolls and Harmony in particular make me happier than I have ever been
