چکیده

We present the Thalamus framework, which is based on SAIBA and extends it by adding a perceptual loop. This perceptual loop enables embodied characters to perform continuous interaction. The framework was tested in a case study involving a NAO and an EMYS robots. After showing that our extension works, we point out some issues that were encountered during the development of the case study. We also suggest that the definition of a formal Perception Modelling Language (PML) based on the SAIBA framework can enable SAIBAcompliant embodied characters to perform continuous interaction, while still performing synchronized multimodal behavior based on BML.
