Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In exemplary implementations of this invention, an input/output device ("Bulb") is attached to on an articulated, actuated robotic arm. The robotic arm can move the Bulb by translating it along three axes and by rotating it about the arm's base. In addition, the I/O can rotate about its own vertical axis. The Bulb comprises at least a pico-projector, two cameras, a depth sensor and an onboard computer. The onboard computer controls actuators in the robotic arm and Bulb that move the Bulb. It also processes visual data captured by the cameras in order to recognize objects or events, and to respond to them. This response may include changing the position of the Bulb or changing the parameters of an image projected by the pico-projector.
