![]() We assumed this was his codename, so we set it as our name. We were scouring the internet for Vector showcase videos, and found the codename "vic" and "victor" several times. If you have an issue, join the Discord server and ask in the cooresponding text channels. (Put IP in, maybe a few other details, then let it run) I have an issue with my Vector. We plan to make an Android and/or Windows app (apple wouldn't allow this) that injects the payload into Vector. We aren't interested in your personal information, and this is going to be opt-in. Are you going to hack into Anki's servers and hack all of our Vectors? We aim to give you full control of your Vector. You can't even save your own scripts to Vector. This fall, Anki is planning to follow up Cozmo with Vector, a next-generation robot that the company is calling Cozmos bigger and smarter brother. The SDK uses set endpoints, and doesn't give you full control of Vector. Why do we need this when there is an SDK? We aren't there yet, but we are closing in. You can never put an ETA on hacking something. We are a diverse group of developers who aim to make Vector open-source. We want to rebuild him as 100% open-source, so the community can make their own updates for him. We want each owner to host their own server on a Jetson Nano (maybe even a Raspberry Pi). ![]() Project Victor is a very small, but diverse group of talented developers, who have done this kind of thing before, that want to make the Anki Vector function without these servers. Without these servers, Vector will be deaf, and new Vector owners would not be able to setup their new Vector. and the servers run by Anki for voice queries and registration. The robots made by Anki before Vector relied on a smartphone's CPU power, but Vector doesn't. They have only promised to monitor cloud operations. Anki seemed to be doing well, but in May of 2019, they unexpectedly went out of business, and never released any source code. He is one of the only robots out there that feels truly "alive". ![]() This post does not reflect the views or the endorsement of the editorial staff.In October of 2018, Anki released a Kickstarter-backed product called Vector. ![]() Want more gift ideas?

And after spending a day with him, we’d much rather interact with Vector over the other “brick-based” home assistants. With a variety of fun features (blackjack, anyone?), and an upcoming option to add Amazon Alexa, he’s as much functional as he is fun. Vector is like a lovable puppy, his mood lights up when he sees someone he recognizes. “Hey Vector” triggers his built-in utilities and voice commands and evokes a much more emotive response than any other home assistant we’ve seen. He can recognize his owners, express joy (or sadness) depending on his mood, and is generally just fun to have around your home. Unlike other home assistants, Vector is a robot sidekick you’ll actually want to hang out with. He’s somewhere in between, blurring the line between utility and play in a way that only Anki can nail. Anki’s Vector isn’t exactly a robotic pet, and he isn’t exactly another home assistant either. ![]()
