    摘要: Sentences corresponding to internal statuses of a robot device or the like are created and uttered, thereby expressing the internal statuses. The robot device or the like comprise means for recognizing an external status, and means for generating an emotion based on the internals status, whereby a change in the emotion is reflected upon a dialogue. The internal status is not associated with a sentence, but it exists independently of the system and is always varied depending on various external inputs and internal changes of the system. Accordingly, even when the same question is made on the robot device or the like, the contents of a reply are changed depending on the internal status at that time, and a manner of providing a reply also differs depending on the internal status.

    摘要: A robot system includes a speech recognition unit for converting speech information into text information, and a database retrieval unit for extracting a keyword included in the text information from a database. By designating a plurality of basic actions on a speech basis, and storing an action record, a combined action formed by combining the plurality of basic actions in time-series order can be named as a new action only in voice-based interaction. A user can designate complicated continuous actions by using only one word, and can easily have a conversation with the robot.

    摘要: In a plane detection apparatus, a plane detection unit (3) includes a line fitting block (4) to select a group of distance data points being in one plane from distance data forming an image and extract lines from the distance data point group, and a region growing block (5) to detect one or more planar regions existing in the image from a group of all lines included in the image and extracted by the line fitting block (4). The line fitting block (4) first draws a line D1 connecting end points of the distance data point group, searches a point of interest brk whose distance to the line L1 is largest, segments the data point group by the point of interest brk when the distance is larger than a predetermined threshold, and determines a line L2 by the least-squares method when the distance is smaller than the predetermined threshold. In case there exists a larger number of data points than a predetermine number on one side of the line L2, the data point group is determined to be in a zig-zag shape, the data point group is segmented by the point of interest brk. These operations are done repeatedly. Thus, a plurality of planes robust against noises is detected simultaneously and accurately from distance data including measurement noises.
