In the last bimester, we have been working on the experimental evaluation of the prototypes (Task 4). On the one hand, we have defined and tested the procedure for performance evaluation of the vocal interfaces defined for different robots and environments. On the other hand, laboratory experiments have been performed to...

In this step of the experiment conception, the robot control design took place. There is now a robot control architecture with an extended impedance controller and an open communication interface to the industrial robot control box. Further the safety system has beeing integrated into the robot control and the experiment...

We have been improving the facial tracker in order to make it more robust than the original version to sudden illumination changes. The improvements have been focused principally in the learning strategy of the facial template for the calculation of the update of the 3D facial model configuration. Its previous version was...
