Development and experiment of facial robot SHFR-III

As a main direction in the research field of humanoid robot, facial robot take an important role in human-robot interaction. This paper introduces the development and experiment of facial robot SHFR-III. The robot's head is consist of eyebrow mechanism, eyeball mechanism, lid mechanism, jaw mechanism and neck mechanism. As eyeball and neck mechanism need a more precise motion control in human-robot interaction, the inverse kinematic problems of eyeball and neck mechanism are analyzed in the paper. Experiment of recognition rate for the robot's 8 basic expression is also presented. Last, summary and further research plan are attached.
