ROBOT FOR PREVENTING INTERRUPTION WHILE INTERACTING WITH USER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18481820 titled 'ROBOT FOR PREVENTING INTERRUPTION WHILE INTERACTING WITH USER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a robot that includes a driver, a camera, and a processor. The robot is capable of performing operations based on user commands received from a first user during an interaction session. It also determines whether interruption by a second user occurs, based on images obtained through the camera. If interruption by the second user is detected, the robot controls the driver to perform a feedback motion for the interruption.

  • The robot includes a driver, camera, and processor.
  • The robot can perform operations based on user commands from a first user.
  • The robot can determine if interruption by a second user occurs.
  • If interruption by the second user is detected, the robot performs a feedback motion.

Potential Applications:

  • Social robots that can interact with multiple users in a dynamic environment.
  • Assistive robots that can respond to interruptions and adapt their behavior accordingly.

Problems Solved:

  • Addressing interruptions during human-robot interactions.
  • Enhancing the ability of robots to handle multiple users in real-time.

Benefits:

  • Improved user experience by allowing the robot to respond to interruptions.
  • Increased adaptability and flexibility of robots in social and assistive settings.


Original Abstract Submitted

A robot includes a driver; a camera; and a processor configured to: during an interaction session in which a first user identified in an image obtained through the camera is set as an interaction subject, perform an operation corresponding to a user command received from the first user, and determine whether interruption by a second user identified in an image obtained through the camera occurs, and based on determining that the interruption by the second user occurred, control the driver such that the robot performs a feedback motion for the interruption.
