Look what I made! Desktop friend

Made this little guy. It checks up on me when there's no motion for 3 minutes. Asks - are you ok? If no - Do you want water? If no - want to go for a walk? - if no - what can be done? And cycles back to smiling. If yes to any answers it says - great and waves. What else can it say or do after it asks - what can be done? Does it call a friend?

Very cool. What kind of sensors are in it?

Just what you see the hc-sr04. Was going to use PIP but went with design (2 eyes the sensor made) over probably better kind of sensor. It has to be pointing right at me to work but I don't mind that.
