We are attempting to develop a system so that a user is able to let robots perform an intellectual action that has a healing and friendly feeling. Based on the development process of the actions and consciousness of animals, we constructed a structure model which connects consciousness and action hierarchically, built a valuation function for action selection, and developed software to control the action of a robot. This software is called Consciousness-Based Architecture (CBA). With it, our aim is to connect a user and robot as closely as possible and to allow smooth communications between them by developing an emotional system that takes notice of consciousness. In our system, the robotic arm's finger is outfitted with a small Web camera, which allows the arm to recognize external information so that the robot can select various actions that comply with certain factors in the outside environment. Furthermore, by using the actuator of the robotic arm, the system we have built provides a correspondence between the robot's internal states, such as the degree of rotation angle, and the outside temperature. In the present study, a motivation model which considers the outside environment and the internal states has been built into the CBA, and the behavior of the robotic arm has been verified.
