چکیده
A Personal robot, which is expected to become popular in the future, is required to be active in joint work and community life with humans. Therefore, the purpose of this study is the development of new mechanisms and functions for a humanoid robot that has the ability to express human-like emotion and communicate naturally with a human, in order to realize a personal robot. Recently, the Emotion Expression Humanoid Robot WE-4RII was developed by integrating the Humanoid Robot Hands RCH-1 into the previous Emotion Expression Humanoid Robot WE-4R. It was confirmed for WE4RII to be able to effectively express its emotions. Index Terms – Humanoid Robot, Robot Hand, Emotional Expression.
