AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Although the communication robot described above can also update communication parameters, the robot does not consider the user's standing or sitting posture and the user's handedness
Therefore, even if the communication robot is efficient in establishing an optimized interaction with the user, once the optimal relationship is established, it will not perform a comfortable interaction that does not burden the user

Embodiment Construction

[0042] Embodiments of the technology disclosed in the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] figure 1 The appearance of a robot 100 to which the technology disclosed in this application can be applied is shown. The robot 100 has a joint structure in which a plurality of links are connected using joints, and each joint is operated using an actuator. also, figure 2 The degrees of freedom (DOF) of the joint configuration of the robot 100 are schematically shown. Although the robot 100 shown in the drawing is installed in a surrounding environment such as a home that changes dynamically from time to time and is configured to perform life support such as housework or nursing care, the robot 100 may be installed in a factory and may perform daily tasks.

[0044] The robot 100 shown in the drawing is of a dual-arm type, and includes, as a moving part, twin drive wheels 101R and 101L facing a base part. The resp...

Abstract

The present application relates to a robot device, a control method and a computer program thereof. A robot apparatus includes: a receiving arm determination unit that determines a receiving arm for delivering an object from a user's left or right arm; a hand position calculation unit that calculates a current position of a hand of the receiving arm; a delivery operation unit that It performs an object delivery operation at the position of the hand of the receiving arm calculated using the hand position calculation unit.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to a robot device (hereinafter simply referred to as "robot") that works in a user's actual living environment, for example, life support like housekeeping, comfort, nursing care, or assistance, and to its control method and computer program. In particular, the present technology relates to a robot with which a user performs an object transfer interaction (that is, a delivery operation), and to a control method and a computer program thereof. Background technique [0002] Robots designed to perform routine tasks and installed in factories are known in the related art. In recent years, robots capable of performing various types of operations have gradually been realized. The latter robots are used in areas such as welfare, care and assistance, and, for example, such robots fetch required objects and deliver them to people with physical disabilities. [0003] However, if the robot performs the delivery operation without conside...
