| Abstract(in English) | Since face and facial expressions are very crucial factors for communication, we have been developing a face robot which has a human-like face and can express facial expressions as similar as human being. The important factors of face robot for coexistence and communication with humans are 1.human size and compact, and 2.easy to control. While we have used air cylinders with pressurized air for the first-generation of face robot, to accomplish these two factors, we decided to use a SMA(shaped memory alloy)actuators driven by electricity and built the second-generation of face robot. Although we succeeded in making human size face robot, it came to clear that SMA does not have enough power and speed. To overcome these issues, we develop air-tube-actuator driven by pressurized air and manufacture the third-generation of face robot. In this paper, we present how to built the third-generation of face robot and its basic ability. |
