Abstract
This paper presents a method that enable a domestic robot to show emotions with its facial expressions. The previous methods using built-in facial expressions were able to show only scanty face. To express faces showing complex emotion, mixed emotions and different strengths of emotions, more facial expressions are needed. We have therefore developed a system that converts emotions into “Ifbot” robot’s facial expressions automatically. They are created from emotion parameters, which represent its emotions.
