This paper presents an upper body tracking algorithm with a single monocular camera. In order to be suitable for human robot interaction, the designed method should be free to work on the moving camera platform and also can achieve real-time performance. The dimension of human posture model is extremely high, and we hereby focus on the visual extraction of head and arms. A hierarchical structure model...
Human-robot interaction necessitates more than robust people detection and tracking. It relies on the integration of disparate scene information from tracking and recognition systems combined and infused with current and prior knowledge to facililtate robotic understanding and interaction with humans and the environment. In this work we will discuss our efforts in the development and integration of...
In human-robot interaction, it is important for the robot to know the head movement, gaze direction and expression of the conversation partner, since such information are deeply related with the attention, intention and emotion. Recently, many types of real-time measurement systems for head pose and gaze direction have been proposed and utilized for human interfaces and ergonomics applications. We...
In this paper, we present a system of patient robot developed with the aim at improving abilities of nursing student's medical treatment, such as injection to vein. We propose to realize variable emotion of patient robot by using chaos orbit of non-linear time-differentiation equation. To evaluate the effectiveness of the robot through actual injection training, we measure heartbeat rate of nurse...
