Expressing Emotions in Social Robotics - A Schematic Overview Concerning the Mechatronics Aspects and Design Concepts

摘要

Facial features play an important role in expressing emotional state. Therefore, rendering realistic facial expressions plays an important role in the development of social robots within HRI. Hence, the design solutions must meet these requirements. Often mechatronic and design solutions poorly chosen can lead to unsatisfactory results. In this paper, a schematic overview concerning the design solutions adopted in the development of social robots is presented.
