Popis: In this paper, an interactive nurse robot is developed which has worked successfully in home environment. The mobile robot, driven by two motors/wheels, consists of image processing, speech recognition, semantic analysis, local/remote interaction, and autonomous mobile components to provide nursing functions of surveillance, interaction, accompanying, patrol, and urgent announcement. Since the proposed robot is desired to service children and/or elders in home, its appearance and actions should be loveable and safe. The experimental results reveal the interactive nurse robot really reaches the goals of attracting and looking after children.
