Kobian, a "humanoid" robot, which can express seven human emotions, has been unveiled by researchers at Waseda University in Japan.

The Emotional Humanoid Robot can express seven different feelings, including delight, surprise, sadness and dislike. In addition to assuming different poses to match the mood, Kobian uses motors in its face to move its lips, eyelids and eyebrows into various positions.

To express delight, for example, the robot put its hands over its head and opens its mouth and eyes wide.

To show sadness, Kobian hunches over, hangs its head and holds a hand up to its face in a gesture of grief.

Kobian can also walk around, perceive its environment and perform physical tasks. The robot features a double jointed neck that helps it achieve more expressive postures.

It was developed and unveiled by researchers at Waseda’s Graduate School of Advanced Science and Engineering in Tokyo on Tuesday June 23.

They were led by Professor Atsuo Takanashi, and worked with robot manufacturer Tmsuk, based in Kitakyushu, southern Japan.

According to Kobian’s developers, the robot’s expressiveness makes it more equipped to interact with humans and assist with daily activities.

There are plans for it to be further developed and then possibly deployed into the field of nursing.

日本早稻田大学的研究人员日前研制出一款“人性”机器人,可以表达七种人类情感。

这台“人类情感机器人”可以表达七种不同的感情,包括喜悦、惊讶、悲伤和厌恶。除了能摆出不同的姿态来表达感情外,机器人Kobian的面部还安装了电动机,调动嘴唇、眼皮和眉毛呈现出各种各样的神态。

例如,为了表达喜悦,机器人会将手举过头顶,并且睁大眼睛咧开嘴笑。

为了表达悲伤,Kobian会弯腰低头,用一只手捂住脸,作悲伤状。

Kobian还可以四处行走,感知周围环境,此外还能做些“体力活”。这台机器人脖颈处有双接缝,有助于他表达更多情感。

这台机器人由日本早稻田大学尖端科技研究院开发,于本周二(6月23日)面世。

Atsuo Takanashi教授是研究负责人,日本南部北九州市机器人生产商Tmsuk公司也参与了研制。

Kobian的研发人员称,机器人的表情可以使它更协调地与人互动,并帮人们做些活。

研究人员计划进一步开展研发工作,之后有可能将它应用于护理领域。
