パンダ型感情表現ロボットの開発

―ファジィに基づく感情認識手法の提案―

抄録

In this paper, we propose the mechanism of a 4-dof panda-like expression robot capable of interacting with human beings. To express emotions on human-robot interaction, the robot has pressure sensors on the body and the head, a camera on the body, a microphone on the nose, and a speaker on the body. Also, a fuzzy-based emotion recognition algorithm for three emotions such as happiness, sad and anger is discussed. Using the robot, emotion expression experiments are conducted, and the effectiveness of the robot mechanism and the emotion expression system is confirmed.
