Abstract

We propose an interface system that can extract a user's ambiguous nuances and feelings from paralinguistic information in their expressed speech and reflect these extracted nuances in a robot's punching action. From the result of an evaluation study, participants reported that this system succeeded in reflecting their nuances and feeling from their expressed paralinguistic information and that this system was easy and fun to use.
