To achieve this goal, the project exploits and advances technologies from various sectors: Robotic hardware, Multilingual speech recognition, Robust natural language interpretation, Advanced navigation capabilities, Appropriate user models for humans and robot and Visual perception capabilities. Visual perception capabilities include: (a) Identify and track the face and the hands, (b) Visually recognize interpret hand gestures, (d) Visual speaker detection, and (e) Recognition of a set of simple facial features and/or expressions}, URL = {papers/baltzakis10_cogsys.pdf}, HTYPE = {other} }
