چکیده

This paper proposes a system that controls and generates a humanoid robot’s dance motion in real-time using the timing of beats in musical audio signals. The system tracks changes in tempo and calculate the integration value of a decibel by analyzing audio signals in real-time. It uses the information to add changes to the robot’s dance motion. Beat intervals and the integration value of decibels are used to change the tempo and range of the robot’s dance motion respectively. We propose a method to synchronize dance motion of robot with musical beat, changing the robot’s dance motion interactively according to the input value.

Audio-Visual Beat Tracking Based on a State-Space Model for a Robot Dancer Performing with a Human Dancer

This paper presents a real-time beat-tracking method that integrates audio and visual information in a probabilistic manner to enable a humanoid robot to dance in synchronization with music and human dancers. Most conventional music robots have focused on either music audio signals or movements of human dancers to detect and predict beat times in real time. Since a robot needs to record music a...

A multimodal tempo and beat-tracking system based on audiovisual information from live guitar performances

The aim of this paper is to improve beat-tracking for live guitar performances. Beat-tracking is a function to estimate musical measurements, for example musical tempo and phase. This method is critical to achieve a synchronized ensemble performance such as musical robot accompaniment. Beat-tracking of a live guitar performance has to deal with three challenges: tempo fluctuation, beat pattern ...

Exploring Creativity through Humanoids and Dance

Programming a humanoid robot to dance to live music is a complex task requiring contributions from multiple disciplines. A vocabulary of intricate limb motions must be designed to be stable and stylistically consistent. To produce coordinate these movements with music, the robot must be able to detect the appropriate beats within audio. One approach is a perceptual model of hearing, which can a...

Synthesis of Dance Performance Based on Analyses of Human Motion and Music

Recent progress in robotics has a great potential, and we are considering to develop a dancing humanoid robot for entertainment robots. In this paper, we propose three fundamental methods of a dancing robot aimed at the sound feedback system in which a robot listens to music and automatically synthesizes dance motion based on the musical features. The first study analyzes the relationship betwe...

Robot Dance based on Online Automatic Rhythmic Perception

Rhythmic perception is intimately related to the production of rhythm in the form of music or dance movements. In this paper we present an architecture and the development of a robotic system using humanoid robots, based on the Lego Mindstorms NXT, which tries to simulate the human rhythmic perception from audio signals, and its reactive behavior in the form of dance. To do so we used a rhythmi...
