DESIGN MODELING AND FABRICATION OF HUMAN-HUMANOID ROBOT COMMUNICATION

Abstract

Humanoid robotics is an emerging technology, lot of research work is done, its advanced research and
development is being continued to incorporate multiple tasks in the robust environment of robotics system. Human
Machine Interface (HMI)is a challenging task, which depends upon the critical applications required. Study, design
and development of a novel Human face recognition and Speech synthesis essential for the humanoid robot, is
carried out in this research project. Voice synthesis and recognition, voice to text conversion is interfaced to the
database. Important feature of facial recognition is carried out, using principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm
called, Eigen-faces. Prototype model of a humanoid design was simulated, fabricated and tested for the real-time
application to interact with the students and faculties. Humanoid Robot (HR) model was validated for its functional
capability and enhanced processing speed. HR is capable addressing oral communication of the personnel; HRHMI, through teleconferencing or video conferencing (VC) at remote terminal.
