       Show HN: Rebuild of Blossom, an open-source social robot
        
       From the post:  Blossom is an open-source robot platform for human-
       robot interaction (HRI) research that I developed during my PhD.
       I've used Blossom for research in design, machine learning, and
       telepresence; others have made Blossoms for their own research
       purposes. I have continued working on "rebuilding" the entire
       platform: I redesigned the inner frame as a model kit, complete
       with Gunpla-inspired runners and instructions, and refactored the
       codebase as r0b0, a Python library for communicating between
       hardware peripherals and software applications. In preparation to
       present Blossom at Maker Faire Coney Island, I refined the
       telepresence interface and enabled conversational interaction with
       a language model. The new repository is available on GitHub and
       includes documentation for construction.
