SociBot Mini

SociBot Mini

SociBot mini demonstrates rear projected face technology and speech interaction. This summer’s Intern, Lucy Shenton extended SociBot’s interactive features, integrating speech recognition and intelligent responses.

Socibot is a compact, sociable robot, designed for human-robot interaction in a more intimate setting. Socibot contains all the processing power of RoboThespian, compressed into a stand-alone kiosk or desktop device. The power of Socibot lies in its sociable qualities – the ability to detect faces, features, emotions, speech and gestures. It also makes use of projective technology coupled with facial generation via parametric meshes to bring any character or image to life, in full 3D form.
