Embodiment Construction

[0048] refer to Figure 1A , shows a social robotics system 100 for controlling a social robot based on previous character portrayals in a novel or show. It should be understood that the system 100 may be applicable to any character portrayal or performance, including that of a real person portraying his or her own natural character. The system includes various modules and data structures, which may be embodied in hardware, software, firmware, or some combination of the foregoing. Hardware, software, firmware or a combination can be implemented locally in the social robot itself, or partially using computer processing power in communication with the social robot using a computer or data communication network.

[0049]System 100 is organized into three subsystems: role and personality profiling subsystem 120 , robot behavior mapping subsystem 140 , and real-time social robot behavior module 160 . The character and personality profiling subsystem 120 may be used prior to robot ...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for controlling a social robot includes providing a set of quantitative personality trait values, also called a "personality profile" to a decision engine of the social robot. The personality profile is derived from a character portrayal in a fictional work, dramatic performance, or by a real-life person (any one of these sometime referred to herein as a "source character").The decision engine controls social responses of the social robot to environmental stimuli, based in part on the set of personality trait values. The social robot thereby behaves in a manner consistent with the personality profile for the profiled source character.

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 467709, filed March 6, 2017, and U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 367335, filed July 27, 2016, These applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to social robots, and to methods for controlling social robots. Background technique [0004] As used herein, a "social robot" is an interactive machine designed to evoke behavior from humans or other humans it interacts with by exhibiting behaviors that are recognizably social in nature to humans or other social animals. Emotional responses of social animals, social robots are designed to interact with humans or other social animals. A social robot can be implemented as a real machine with the ability to move at least a part of its robotic body in a real environment. Additionally, a...
