Design of Emotion Expressing Behavior Based on LMA for Aerial Robot

Abstract:

The non-humanoid robots can express emotion by imitating the humans body language with different paths. The movement parameters effecting the Laban Effort Factors can be got by parameterizing the trajectory with using Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) Theory. Then, the emotion expressing model based on the trajectory of aerial robot is established by mapping the Effort Factors to the PAD emotion space. The simulation demonstrates the validity of the model.
