Appropriate Interactive Robot Construction

Abstract

This invention relates to the structure of an interactive robot, comprising a main body, generally spherical in shape, having one eyeball, which is a hemispherical, translucent shell with a horizontal groove in the center; one eyeball, slidably disposed in the groove, with an iris display unit; a light-emitting element disposed within the eyeball to output color; a left ear disposed on the left side of the main body and connected to a left ear motor; a right ear disposed on the right side of the main body and connected to a right ear motor; a sound sensing unit disposed at any position on the main body, the eyeball, or the eyeball; an image sensing unit disposed at any position on the main body, the eyeball, or the eyeball; and a sound-emitting element disposed on the main body. Thus, the eyeball can move left and right and up and down, simulating the companionship effect of "eye contact," enhancing the realism of the interaction with the user.

Claims

1. A structure for an appropriate interactive robot, comprising: A main body, generally spherical in shape, has an eyeball, which is a semi-transparent hemispherical shell with a horizontal groove in the middle; an eyeball, slidably disposed in the groove, has an iris display unit; a light-emitting element, disposed inside the eyeball to output color; a left ear, disposed on the left side of the main body and connected to a left ear motor; a right ear, disposed on the right side of the main body and connected to a right ear motor; a sound sensing unit, disposed at any position on the main body, the eyeball, or the eyeball; an image sensing unit, disposed at any position on the main body, the eyeball, or the eyeball; a sound-emitting element, disposed on the main body; and an emotion recognition and processing unit, electrically connected to an emotion feedback database, the eyeball, the light-emitting element, the left ear motor, the right ear motor, the sound-emitting element, the aforementioned sound sensing unit, and the aforementioned image sensing unit.

2. The adaptive interactive robot construction as described in claim 1, wherein, The main body has a fixing part, which is hemispherical. The fixing part is combined with the eyeball to form a spherical shape. Two servo motors are set on both sides of the fixing part and drive the eyeball to rotate up and down relative to the fixing part.

3. The appropriate interactive robot construction as described in claim 1, wherein, An electric slide is provided on the eyeball, and the electric slide is connected to the eyeball to drive the eyeball to slide left and right along the slide groove.

4. The adaptive interactive robot construction as described in claim 1, wherein, A communication unit is installed on the main body, and the emotion recognition computing unit is electrically connected to the communication unit.

5. The adaptive interactive robot construction as described in claim 4, wherein, The emotion recognition computing unit is a microcomputer built into the eyeball and can be further connected to an external computing computer or the cloud through the communication unit.
