Robot capable of incorporating natural dialogue with a user into the behavior of the robot, and method for programming and using the robot

摘要

The present invention relates to a humanoid robot. The robot can interact with at least one user. The dialogue uses two modes of speech recognition, one of which is an open mode and the other is a closed mode, which is defined by the notions that characterize the dialogue sequence. The dialogue can also be affected by events that are neither conversation nor text. The robot of the present invention can behave and generate facial expressions and emotions. Compared to prior art robots, the present invention has the advantage of significantly reducing the programming time and latency of interactive sequence execution, providing fluency and naturalness close to human interaction.
