INTERACTIVE ROBOT RESPONDING TO HUMAN PHYSICAL TOUCHES IN MANNER OF BABY
First Claim
1. An interactive robot for mimicking a baby'"'"'s reactions to physical touches by a human user, the interactive robot comprising:
- a main portion having;
a signal processing module, anda display module coupled to the signal processing module; and
a hand portion having;
a plurality of signal conducting poles, anda triaxial force sensor coupled to the signal conducting poles;
wherein the hand portion is located at one side of the main portion;
wherein the signal conducting pole is configured to;
sense an action signal from the hand portion, andsend the action signal to the triaxial force sensor;
wherein the triaxial force sensor is configured to;
convert the action signal to an electrical signal, andsend the electrical signal to the signal processing module;
wherein the signal processing module is configured to;
determine an action to correspond to the electrical signal,determine an emotional reaction to correspond to the action, andsend a reaction signal to the display module; and
wherein the display module is configured to display one corresponding countenance after receiving the reaction signal.

Abstract
An interactive robot mimicking a baby'"'"'s reactions to physical touches by a human user includes a main portion and two hand portions at the sides. The main portion includes a display panel coupled to a signal processing module. The two hand portions include signal conducting poles and a triaxial force sensor. The signal conducting poles sense actions applied to the hand portions by the user and send signals to the triaxial force sensor. The triaxial force sensor converts the signals to an electrical signal. The signal processing module can determine the action applied by the user, determine an appropriate emotional reaction, and send a reaction signal to the display module. The display module displays a particular countenance after receiving the reaction signal.
