OpsBot was inspired by a simple problem I noticed at events: people keep asking the same questions while organizers are busy handling everything else.

The phone becomes the robot’s face and voice, and the robot responds with clear physical actions like pointing, waving, or looking around.

While building it, I learned that the most important part is not making the robot complex. It is making the interaction feel immediate and understandable. A small movement at the right moment can make the assistant feel much more present than a long answer.

The biggest challenge was making the whole experience feel reliable in a live demo setting. The robot had to answer quickly, use real event information when available, fall back safely when something failed, and show movement clearly enough for people to understand what it was doing.

OpsBot taught me that useful robotics can start with a very focused use case.
