# Marcus — End-to-End Pipeline
|
||
|
||
**Robot persona:** Sanad (wake word + self-intro)
|
||
**Updated:** 2026-04-21
|
||
|
||
One map of every data path from sensor to motor, voice to speech. Cross-reference with `architecture.md` (what each file is), `functions.md` (exact function signatures — AST-generated), and `MARCUS_API.md` (usage examples + JSON schemas).
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Boot sequence
|
||
|
||
`Brain/marcus_brain.py::init_brain()` — called once from `run_marcus.py` or `marcus_server.py`.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
run_marcus.py

├─ if subsystems.lidar: init_lidar() multiprocessing spawn SLAM_worker

├─ send_cmd("start") + 0.5s + send_cmd("walk") + 0.5s Holosoma handshake

└─ _warmup_llava() first Qwen2.5-VL inference

"SANAD AI BRAIN — READY"

```
|
||
|

Subsystem flags live in `config_Brain.json::subsystems`. Current defaults:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"subsystems": { "lidar": true, "voice": true, "imgsearch": false, "autonomous": true }
|
||
```

## Terminal / WebSocket command pipeline (same brain, skips voice)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
run_marcus.py stdin OR Server/marcus_server.py WebSocket
|
||
▼
|
||
Brain/marcus_brain.py::process_command(text)
|
||
▼ (same parser → LLaVA → executor → ZMQ as above)
|

▼
|
||
result dict → stdout OR WebSocket reply frame

## Vision pipeline (continuous, consumed by brain on demand)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
RealSense D435 (USB)

Navigation/goal_nav.py (fast YOLO check → Qwen-VL fallback)

Autonomous/marcus_autonomous.py (patrol scan every N steps)

Brain/marcus_brain.py (status / alerts)

## Movement pipeline
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Brain/executor.py OR Brain/command_parser.py OR Navigation/*
|
||
│ uses MOVE_MAP from config_Navigation.json
|

API/zmq_api.py::send_vel(vx, vy, vyaw) JSON over ZMQ PUB (port 5556)

## LiDAR pipeline (when `subsystems.lidar = true`)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Livox Mid-360 (192.168.123.120, UDP)
|

Lidar/SLAM_worker.py (multiprocessing.spawn subprocess — CUDA-safe spawn)
|
||
├─ SLAM_engine, SLAM_Filter, SLAM_LoopClosure, SLAM_Submap, SLAM_NavRuntime
|
||
├─ publishes pose + obstacle flags back to parent via Queue
|
||
└─ writes occupancy grids to Data/Navigation/Maps/
|
||
▼
|
||
API/lidar_api.py (reads the queues, exposes:)
|
||
├─ obstacle_ahead() → bool
|
||
├─ get_lidar_status() → dict (pose, loc_state, frame age, FPS, ICP ms)
|
||
└─ LIDAR_AVAILABLE
|
||
▼
|
||
Navigation/goal_nav.py rotation thread — pauses motion on obstacle_ahead()

## Knobs that control each stage
|
||
|
||

||
| `subsystems.autonomous` | config_Brain.json | auto-patrol state machine init on/off |

|
||

|
||

## Per-command latency (estimated, post-fixes)
|
||
|
||
| Step | Typical | Notes |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| Wake-word detect | 200–500 ms | Whisper tiny on 2 s chunk |
|
||
| Record until silence | 1–8 s | depends on user speech |
|
||
| Whisper small STT | 500–1500 ms | once per command |
|
||
| Camera frame fetch | <50 ms | poll loop, no 1 s blocking stall |
|
||
| Ollama Qwen2.5-VL | 800–1500 ms | `num_batch=128 / num_ctx=2048 / num_predict=120` |
|
||
| Executor + ZMQ send | <10 ms | fire-and-forget PUB |
|
||
| TtsMaker playback | ~len(text) × 80 ms | synthesizes + plays on robot |
|
||
|
||
**Total wake → answer-playback:** ~**2.5–4 s** for a short vision question like "what do you see" (vs. 5–8 s with the pre-restructure edge-tts/Gemini overhead).
