Automatic Control of Contextual Interaction Integrated with Affection and Architectural Attentional Control

Blog Article

It is still a challenge for robots to interact with complex environments in a smooth and natural manner.The robot should be aware of its surroundings and inner status to make decisions accordingly and appropriately.Contexts benefit the interaction a 3 IN 1 MINT lot, such as avoiding frequent interruptions (e.g.

, the explicit inputting requests) and thus are essential for interaction.Other challenges, such as shifting attentional focus to a more important stimulus, etc., are also crucial in interaction control.This paper presents a hybrid automatic control approach for interaction, as well as its integration, with these multiple important factors, aiming at performing natural, human-like interactions in robots.

In particular, a novel approach of architectural attentional control, based on affection is presented, which attempts to shift the attentional focus in a natural manner.Context-aware computing is combined with interaction to endow the robot with proactive abilities.The long-term interaction control approaches are described.Emotion and personality are introduced into the interaction and their influence mechanism on interaction is explored.

We implemented the proposal A/C Adaptor in an interactive head robot (IHR) and the experimental results indicate the effectiveness.
