Abstract :
This paper describes a humanoid robot “Hadaly” that was developed as a basic model for the final version of Humanoid. In this study, the authors feature an attempt to find the configurations and functions that are required for a humanoid. Hadaly consists of four systems; an audio-visual system, a head system, a speech system and an arm system. The configurations and functions required for a humanoid robot are clarified based on the results of the information assistance experiment with Hadaly
