  • Publication number: 20190105783
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a robot (1) configured to exhibit a robot identity and/or a robot personality at least partly through execution of computer-readable program code. The robot comprises a robot head (3) configured for connection to a face part (9; 9A, 9B) including a display surface, the robot being configured to cause the display of a face image depicting a face of said robot on said display surface. The robot head (3) is configured for detachable connection to said face part to allow detachable connection of different face parts (9; 9A, 9B) to the robot head, and the robot (1) is configured to automatically adapt said robot identity and/or said robot personality based on the face part currently being connected to the robot head (3). This allows a user of the robot to change character of the robot, i.e. to change the robot identity and/or personality, by connection of different face parts to the robot head.

  • Patent number: 10019992
    Abstract: A device includes a plurality of components, a memory having a keyword recognition module and a context recognition module, a microphone configured to receive an input speech spoken by a user, an analog-to-digital converter configured to convert the input speech from an analog form to a digital form and generate a digitized speech, and a processor. The processor is configured to detect, using the keyword recognition module, a keyword in the digitized speech, initiate, in response to detecting the keyword by the keyword recognition module, an action to be taken one of the plurality of components, wherein the keyword is associated with the action, determine, using the context recognition module, a context for the keyword, and execute the action if the context determined by the context recognition module indicates that the keyword is a command.

  • Patent number: 9805233
    Abstract: There is provided a system including a plurality of radio frequency (RF) tags, each corresponding to one of a plurality of individuals, a memory, and a processor configured to receive a signal from a first RF tag of the plurality of RF tags, the signal including a first tag identification (ID) uniquely identifying the first RF tag, follow a motion of the first RF tag, follow a motion of a first individual of the plurality of individuals, and determine a first likelihood that the first RF tag corresponds to the first individual based on the motion of the first RF tag and the motion of the first individual.
