Base Claim:
1. An auditory relational robotic controller (RRC)-humanoid robot comprising: a human-like mechanical robotic system comprising a human-like tactile recording monitor, a human-like visual recording monitor, and a human-like robotic body comprising a set of bipedal limbs, a set of arms, a set of hands, a set of fingers, an energy power source, and sets of motors and gears used to move the body, limbs, arms, hands, and fingers; an auditory human-like recording monitor sensitive to an auditory frequency range of 1-20,000 cycles per second (cps), said auditory human-like recording monitor comprising a set of linear pickup microphones and a set of spectrum analyzers that convert incoming sound into electronic phonetic (a-f-t)-signal output characterized by an amplitude, frequency, time (a-f-t) chart showing the amplitude and frequency of the incoming sound as a function of time; a relational robotic controller (RRC) that satisfies a set of specification requirements for relational robotic controllers; a verbal-phoneme sound generator that generates sequences of phoneme sounds that are controlled by the RRC; an interface circuit positioned between the auditory human-like recording monitor and the RRC, said interface circuit configured to decompose an electronic phonetic (a-f-t)-signal output of each spectrum analyzer into collective modalities tuned to the characteristics of verbal speech, generate a q-magnitude and p-direction p-phoneme vector that is a suitable input to a multi-dimensional function space Nodal Map Module (NMM), standardize the p-phoneme vector to operate in a Task Selector Module (TSM), the NMM, a Sequence Stepper Module (SSM) of the RRC, and successfully activate the verbal-phoneme sound generator, and develop a speech processing methodology for obtaining a one-to-one mapping of the acoustic signals onto a phonetic structure free of segmentation errors; and a programming methodology defined by a Declarative Hierarchical Task Diagram (DHTD) specification that provides the robot a human-like, high IQ form of verbal artificial intelligence (AI).

Claim 15:
15. The auditory RRC-humanoid robot of claim 1 , wherein the behavioral programming methodology is experiential in a manner such that the system relates, correlates, prioritizes and remembers input patterns by performing verbalization tasks with the verbal phoneme sound generator and relating the performed verbalization tasks to manual dexterity manipulation task TITs, locomotion tasks, and visualization task TITs associated with the self-location and identification coordinate frame.
