  1. 26. Using a robot head with a 3D face mask as a communication medium for telepresence

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för datavetenskap och kommunikation (CSC)

    Author : Magnus Gudmandsen; [2015]
    Keywords : Telepresence; Telenärvaro;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the viability of a new communication medium for telepresence, namely a robotic head with a 3D face mask. In order to investigate this, a program was developed for an existing social robot, enabling the robot to be used as a device reflecting the facial movements of the operator. READ MORE
