Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, when assembling these functions, the conventional practice has been to change the probability of producing a state machine with a fixed set probability for behavior, or to replace the state machine entirely
[0007] Although the frequency of behavior changes through interaction with the user or the outside world, thereby increasing the complexity suitable for robotic devices, it cannot be said that such complexity is beyond the behavior originally presupposed by the designer (programmer) or outside the scope of the reaction
Similarly, the objects that a robot can recognize are limited so that the robotic device cannot recognize objects other than those specified by the programmer
This means that current robotic devices lack the ability to determine how to respond to unknown stimuli

Embodiment Construction

[0053] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. This embodiment is intended to illustrate an autonomous robotic device that behaves autonomously in response to the surrounding environment (external stimuli) and internal state.

[0054] In this embodiment, first, the structure of the robot device will be described, and then the daily functions achieved by the robot will be described in detail.

[0055] (1) The structure of the robot device of this embodiment

[0056] As shown in FIG. 1, the robot device is a so-called pet robot imitating an animal such as a dog, and consists of leg units 3A, 3B, 3C and 3D respectively connected to the front and rear sides of the left and right sides of the trunk unit 2 and connected to the trunk unit 2 respectively. The head unit 4 and the tail unit 5 at the front and rear ends of the unit 2 are constituted.

[0057] Referring to Fig. 2, trunk unit 2 comprise...

Abstract

A robot apparatus causes the emotion in a feeling part (130) to be changed based on the information acquired by a perception part (120) to manifest the behavior of information acquisition as autonomous behavior. The robot apparatus includes a behavior control part for causing the robot apparatus to manifest a language acquisition behavior and a meaning acquisition part. The robot apparatus also includes a control part for performing the behavior control of pointing its object of learning. The robot apparatus causes changes in internal states, which are ascribable to the object, to be stored in a memory part in association with the object.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application "robot device and its behavior control method" filed on October 11, 2001 with application number 01804288.0. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to robotic devices and methods of controlling their behavior. Background technique [0003] In recent years, robotic devices that take the appearance of animals, such as dogs, are appearing on the market. This robotic device responds to external information or its own internal state, such as its sensory state, and behaves like an animal. Among these robots, there is one that can perform behaviors such as kicking a ball, and there is also one that provides a learning function for it. Among these learning functions, one is a speech learning function. [0004] An ultimate goal in pet-like robotics is to generate realistic robotic devices, or in other words, to construct a scalable system. [0005] Attempts have been made so far...
