Abstract
The present disclosure provides a robot control device including a detection section that detects an external force applied to a movable part of a robot, on the basis of a parameter obtained from a joint driving the movable part, and a driving control section that controls an interaction of the robot, according to the detected external force. With this configuration, in a case where a user touches the robot, the robot can perform an interaction according to the touch.
Claims18
A robot control device, comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- detect an external force applied to a position of a robot,
- determine information, based on the external force, associated with a touching manner when a user touched the robot,
- acquire user attribute information associated with the user,
- acquire emotion information of the robot,
- determine a motion of the information associated with the robot based on the information associated with the touching manner, the user attribute information, and the emotion information.
A robot control method, comprising:
- detecting an external force applied to a position of a robot,
- determining information, based on the external force, associated with a touching manner when a user touched the robot,
- acquiring user attribute information associated with the user,
- acquiring emotion information of the robot,
- determining a motion of the robot based on the information associated with the touching manner, the user attribute information, and the emotion information.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-readable instructions, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to execute operations, the operations comprising:
- detecting an external force applied to a position of a robot,
- determining information, based on the external force, associated with a touching manner when a user touched the robot,
- acquiring user attribute information associated with the user,
- acquiring emotion information of the robot, and
- determining a motion of the robot based on the information associated with the touching manner, the user attribute information, and the emotion information.
