متن کاملLiving machines
Our aim is to sketch the boundaries of a parallel track in the evolution of robotic forms that is radically different from any previously attempted.

متن کاملLaban Movement Analysis and Affective Movement Generation for Robots and Other Near-Living Creatures
This manuscript describes an approach, based on Laban Movement Analysis, to generate compact and informative representations of movement to facilitate affective movement recognition and generation for robots and other artificial embodiments. We hypothesize that Laban Movement Analysis, which is a comprehensive and systematic approach for describing movement, is an excellent candidate for derivi...
