Design expressive behaviors for robotic puppet

چکیده
This paper describes the generation of expressive gestures on a robotic puppet controlled using behaviorbased method. Recent findings on biological motion mechanisms provide an inspiring model for controlling high dimensional robot with motor primitives. The modular features of primitives make them the building blocks for constructing complex behaviors. The inborn similarity between gesture and speech enable us to study behavior with those methods for language. We designed a motor controller using a small set of primitives. The effectiveness of this method is validated on the robotic puppet with different expressive gestures generated by superimposing and sequencing the primitives.

Teaching Robots Style: Designing and Evaluating Style-by-Demonstration for Interactive Robotic Locomotion
In this paper we present a multi-part formal design and evaluation of the style-by-demonstration (SBD) approach to creating interactive robot behaviors: enabling people to design the style of interactive robot behaviors by providing an exemplar. We first introduce our Puppet Master SBD algorithm that enables the creation of interactive robot behaviors with a focus on style: users provide an exa...
متن کاملPuppet Show: Intuitive Puppet Interfaces for Expressive Character Control
We argue that evolving game art like virtual performances and Machinima depend on better character control. That is why Puppet Show does not focus on new or optimized gameplay but aims to extend the expressive range of characters in an existing game world. Puppet Show is an interface plug-in for Epic’s Unreal Tournament 2004. Puppet Show uses an external Java program to feed visual input from a...
متن کاملMarionette: from Traditional Manipulation to Robotic Manipulation
Marionettes are string-operated puppets. It is an ancient and universal form of performing art which still evolves slowly today. From the engineering perspective, the marionette is a wire(or string-) driven multi-limbed under-actuated mechanism under gravity influence that exhibits rich kinematic and dynamic behaviours. This article introduces the evolution and the engineering aspect of traditi...
