Abstract

Partnership between a person and a robot could be enhanced if the robot were intelligent enough to recognize an individual and adapt its behavior. During the last several years, we have been developing such an intelligent robot in the form of a humanoid robot called ISAC. In this paper, we will describe a user-centric multi-agent framework for robot control and human-robot interaction and one cognitive agent called the Human Agent. Additionally, a second cognitive agent and short- and long-term memory structures for the robot are briefly described. Finally, three applications are shown to illustrate how ISAC will interact effectively with humans.
