Abstract [en]

The Furhat robot is a social robot that uses facial projection technology to achieve a high degree of expressivity and flexibility. In this demonstration, we will present new features that takes this facial expressiveness further. A new face engine for the robot is presented which not only drastically improves the visual fidelity of the face and the eyes, it also adds increased flexibility when it comes to designing new robotic characters as well as modifying existing ones. Most importantly, we will present a new toolset and a workflow that allows users to record their own face motion and incorporate them into skills (i.e. custom robot applications) as gestures, prompts or entire canned performances.
