Design of a humanoid robot head for studying human-robot interaction

摘要

The paper presents the development of a humanoid robot head that is intended to be used in social interaction studies. In this study a set of solutions for reproducing the human head movement and part of the sensorial capabilities are developed and analyzed. For implementing the robot control and computer vision functions a set of applications were developed using Matlab. The obtained experimental results are also presented in the end of the paper.
