Using Respiration for Enhancing Human-Robot Dialogue

摘要

This paper presents the development and capabilities of a spoken dialogue robot that uses respiration to enhance human-robot dialogue.By employing a respiratory estimation technique that uses video input, the dialogue robot captures user respiratory information during dialogue.This information is then used to prevent speech collisions between the user and the robot and to present synchronized pseudorespiration with the user, thereby enhancing the smoothness and engagement of human-robot dialogue.
