Car link: BT / CAN / USB
Battery or car power

Offline custom wake word, mic-array sound-source localisation, head nod and body-turn motors, an offline music-rhythm mode, and a link to the head unit over Bluetooth, CAN or USB — clipped onto the car’s centre screen. It turns to whoever speaks and dances when the music comes on.

Reference design

A reference design, shown for illustration. Each project is customised to your brand: the shell, the colourway and the feature set are all yours to change. Development and sample arrangements are agreed together once we understand the project; samples available.

Features

Voice wake-up, custom wake word

Wakes on its name, or on a wake word you choose — handled on the device, so it works with no connection.

Turns to the speaker

On the wake word it turns toward whoever called it, and stays put during normal conversation instead of twitching at every sound. Runs offline.

Head and body motors

A head motor nods and looks up, a body motor turns left and right — so every reply comes with real movement.

Music rhythm mode

Detects music and dances along with matching expressions, motion and a breathing light. Runs offline.

Fast, natural conversation

LLM dialogue on leading models in China and overseas, chosen per market — streamed with a tight latency budget so replies feel instant.

Voice commands

Change brightness or volume, play an expression or trigger a move — all by voice.

Emotion engine

Its replies carry emotion, and the face follows — happy, surprised, shy or thoughtful as the conversation turns.

A life of its own

Between conversations it plays expressions with sounds and little moves every few minutes, naps after a long stretch, then wakes up and starts again.

App setup & content

Bluetooth setup from the companion app; optional premium content such as online music and audiobooks can be added.

Aftermarket or factory-fit

Sold as an aftermarket accessory, or customised for a carmaker: styling matched to the interior, mounting designed for the model, CAN integration with the vehicle, and validation to the carmaker’s own requirements.

Connects to the car

Links to the head unit over Bluetooth, CAN bus or USB, so it can react to the car’s audio and status — choose the interface per vehicle project.

OTA updates as standard

Firmware, expressions, voices and content update over Wi-Fi after shipping — new features and fixes reach units already in your customers’ hands, rolled out in batches from the console.
