Autonomous Human-Robot Proxemics: A Robot-Centered Approach

摘要

Our approach enables the robot to execute proxemic behaviors that improve speech and gesture recognition for both the robot and the human, even in noisy and cluttered environments [5]. This work has been deployed on two different mobile robot platforms: (1) the PR22, and (2) the Bandit3 upper body humanoid atop an iRobot Ava4 mobile base. This demonstrates the portability of the approach.
