Week 8: Tutespark Cyberpunk

Cyberpunk: Fusion of Man and Machine.

Combining of 1999 film Bicentennial Man and the article 'Intuitive Human-Machine-Interaction and Implementation of a Household Robot Companion.'

Service robots or robot companions that interact with humans require a special form of Human-Machine-Interaction (HMI).

Based on a typical household scenario, we have developed a framework for integrating several human-robot modalities into one robot system, the NBR 114.

We see our robot, The NBR 114 being useful in typical household scenarios.

The robot observes the human during his movements and ac- quires the information necessary for repeating this task.

After the initial learning phase the robot is asked to repeat the task several times for a complete table of e. g. six place settings. By analysing this scenario we have chosen the following HRI com- ponents for implementation and integration into our robot system: Speech Input / Out- put, Gesture Recognition and Remote Control. Additional components are the “tradi- tional” functionalities of mobile robots like navigation, manipulation, object recognition and the like. While a remote control is not necessarily needed for the sce- nario above, our robot integrated into a household environment also incorporates control of the house itself. It can be considered as a household appliance, designed to serve humans.

We chose reliable, working implementations of the components of The NBR 114 listed, adapted to our special needs of service robotics. Our focus is on the development of an integration household robotic appliance.
