Problems solved by technology

In addition, the introduction of accompanying and preschool robots has made the interaction between robots and people more and more important. These robots basically have applications such as voice chat, video surveillance, and infrared remote control. However, due to some limitations, robots still cannot present too much Lively, changeable, and vivid content that interacts with people, so the interaction with users is limited
[0004] At present, the robot cannot perceive the state of the outside world very well, its head cannot track the user, the user experience is greatly reduced, and it is not suitable for ordinary families; the interaction mode with the user is relatively simple, which cannot meet the needs of the user. Lots of room for improvement

Embodiment 1

[0032] The steps for the robot to realize head rotation through face detection are as follows:

[0033] S1. Turn on the robot control system, set the target face information, the target face can be one or more, depending on the needs, start the camera, and enter S2;

[0034] S2. The head of the robot rotates, the camera acquires images frame by frame, feeds back the image information to the control system, and the control system reads the image information. The steps to obtain the image are as follows:

[0035] (1) The bitmap format conversion module converts the image into a bitmap format;

[0036] (2) The data reading module reads the image data;

[0037] (3) The data storage module stores image data.

[0038] Enter S3;

[0039] S3. The face data recognition module identifies whether there is target face data in the image data, and detects whether there is an image in the image where the distance between the eyes and the center point of the eyes match the information set ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for realizing head rotation of a robot by face detection. The method comprises: a control system is started, target face information is set, and a camera is turned on; the camera rotates to obtain an image and feeds back image information to a control system, and the control system reads image information; the control system identifies whether a target face exists in the image; if so, the control system obtains a target face position and the head of a robot rotates with movement of the face; and if not, the camera obtains an image again. The method and apparatus have the following beneficial effects: a robot with following head rotation is realized by face detection; and when a user moves towards a certain direction at a certain angle, the head of the robot rotates with the user. During the using process, the robot can face the face of the user directly; and a defect that some existing robots with stiff movements lack of flexibility and interaction can be overcome, so that the fun of the robot and the user can be increased substantially.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for rotating the head of a robot. Background technique [0002] A robot is a machine that simulates human behavior or thought, or simulates other creatures, and integrates technologies in the fields of machinery, electronics, information, and industrial design. At present, robots have been widely used in various fields, especially high-risk, high-burden, high-precision, and high-repetition work. For example, manufacturing production lines use industrial robots to produce products. [0003] With the development of technology and demand, the application level of robots has gradually penetrated into ordinary families and people's daily life, such as sweeping robots. In addition, the introduction of accompanying and preschool robots has made the interaction between robots and people more and more important. These robots basically have applications such as voice chat, video surveillance, and infrared remote control. Howeve...
