Abstract

The increasing capabilities of experimental household robot platforms require more and more sophisticated methods of interaction. While there are many developments in all directions of Human-Machine-Interaction, the integration and combination of several modalities into one robot system require some effort. To ease the development of applications supporting several types of interaction, Fraunhofer IPA has developed a framework named "Go". Within this framework we have integrated different kinds of interaction methods into one robot platform "Care-O-bot 3", a mobile service robot for accomplishing daily tasks. This framework and its interaction methods are presented here.
