Robot Birds: Enabling socializing opportunities through human-robot interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Animals therapy serves as a unique tool for caregivers in both eldercare and therapeutic situations. Music therapy is also an established therapeutic practice. Robot therapy is a new field of research where robots serve a similar function as therapy animals. This paper looks at robot bird companions. The aim is to leverage the benefits of both animal therapy and music therapy. The robot companions interact with people through music and motion and also serve to facilitate interaction between people. There is potential for the birds to be used as a positive social tool in therapeutic and eldercare situations. Keywords—robot therapy, music therapy, ai, social robots. Figure 1. Bird robot model.

An Experimental Study on Blinking and Eye Movement Detection via EEG Signals for Human-Robot Interaction Purposes Based on a Spherical 2-DOF Parallel Robot
Blinking and eye movement are one of the most important abilities that most people have, even people with spinal cord problem. By using this ability these people could handle some of their activities such as moving their wheelchair without the help of others. One of the most important fields in Human-Robot Interaction is the development of artificial limbs working with brain signals. The purpos...
متن کاملWorkspace Boundary Avoidance in Robot Teaching by Demonstration Using Fuzzy Impedance Control
The present paper investigates an intuitive way of robot path planning, called robot teaching by demonstration. In this method, an operator holds the robot end-effector and moves it through a number of positions and orientations in order to teach it a desired task. The presented control architecture applies impedance control in such a way that the end-effector follows the operator’s hand with d...
