In your technical paper, you say that your robot is going to use VGG-16, but you tried using a transformer-based architecture, too. Why did you choose to use the CNN from 2013 over an attention mechanism from 2020? Is this why your success rate was only 68%? How do you plan to...

Hello Ranjiv, and huge thanks for reading our technical paper! Here is the answer: The old architectures such as VGG-16 were offered in the paper as a starting point of the research and development. As you said previously, these methods are quite old from a nowadays perspective but are stable and give a good result, while Vision Transformers is very new, and its applications are coming on front. So, to separate our research and development from each other, we started with using stable CNN arc...

How much money has already been invested to get to this point? Have you raised money before or is was it your money?

Hey Alex, we are bootstrapped up to now. And still, we managed to create a hologram device prototype (video will be available by Monday) and full extensive research about the technology we are using. In order to reach our goals, we are launching this round here. WE WANT TO BUILD THIS BUSINESS FOR PEOPLE THROUGH PEOPLE and become the largest robotics company in the long term perspective.

Hi, Do you have any awarded patents for this technology? How many? Issued or pending? If issued, who are they assigned to? Thanks for clearing this up for us. Blessings

Hello, great question! As our product is clearly unique we are currently working on our Intelectual Property Application, we will make an announcement once it is ready.

Great job bootstrapping to this point. I think you've got to fix Destiny's voice. She sounds like an old computer, but I believe this is a great step in the right direction. Also, I've invested with Archie before and will follow him to Destiny Robotics.

Hey Craig, thank you! Good Feedback! We are currently improving not only the voice but everything: device materials, processing time, adding more skills, hologram quality. With more resources, we will manage to provide higher-quality results. Will keep you updated!

Love the ideas and hope you have every success! As a follow-up to the patent question, the financial disclosure indicates only $225 spent on research & development. Can you be a bit more specific on what type(s) of intellectual property applications you anticipate (patent,...

Hello Steve, thank you for your kind wishes! We're still in the process of developing our products and trying to invent a new product like Destiny Robot and Destiny Hologram with new features. It's quite reasonable to anticipate all these things like patent, trademark, etc.
