Humanoid robots are designed to resemble human body shape. So far researches show that there is no a fully-head features humanoid robot. Designing of the humanoid robot depends on the purpose of the design. Some forms may model only part of the body of the humanoid robot, if the design only focused on the lower part of the body the experimental purpose might be studying some related actions such as the study of bipedal locomotion. If the designed is constructing the upper body of the humanoid robot the main focus is to study the artificial intelligence of the robot. The project focuses on the study of the artificial intelligence of the humanoid robot by designing an interactive humanoid robotic head with some vision sensor working in the principle of image processing of video frames captured by a webcam. The robotic head is able to recognize people registered in the database which is containing a number of facial images. The robot has the ability to communicate and interact with these people in different ways. Even more, the robot is able to track some objects based on the color tracking algorithm. The color of the object is set manually, by programming and designing tracking bars. The robotic head is able the recognize speech as it can be controlled over the voice commands or it can answer some question. The speech recognition algorithm is simply a speech to text synthesizer that comes with a series of speech recognizers and acoustic models. The robot is trained to recognize certain words and phrases based on a dictionary file generated with these words and their phonetics. The robot can interact with people by speaking using a text to speech engine that generates sound files. As the robot speaks the spoken words are synchronized to the servo motor attached to the lower jaw. The robotic head is constructed with ten servo motors mounted in different positions to derive the head features. Nine of them are connect to the Raspberry Pi and only one servo motor is connected to a different board to perform the audio to mouth synchronization. The entire head structure is 3d printed and modeled in a 3d modeling software. 2024-12-04T03:08:41Z 2024-12-04T03:08:41Z 2016 Resource Types::text::Final Year Project https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/35248 en application/pdf
