Abstract: Since recent advancement of computing and robotics technologies, intelligent robots are soon ready to serve us in our homes, hospitals, offices and everywhere. These robots can speak, recognise facial expression, understand spoken and gesture instructions, navigate autonomously in human-centred environments, and therefore will play an important role in our daily life. This seminar briefly overviews the recent development in advanced human-machine interaction, in particular focused on the various modalities of information exchanging between humans and robots. Seven human-machine interaction mechanisms are discussed respectively, and many experimental implementation results are demonstrated via video.
