Abstract :
Research on Human-Robot Interaction is dedicated to understanding, designing, evaluating and improving the communication between humans and robots. Our present study reports the development of an intelligent autonomous robot (CERBERUS). Cerberus is an autonomous robot that performs face and skeleton recognition. Evaluation of the face and skeleton recognition capabilities are reported. The results were used to improve the system´s performance to increase situation awareness and enhance human-robot interaction.
