HRI for interactive humanoid head Amir-II for visual tracking and servoing of human face.

In this paper, we describe the HRI (Human-Robot Interaction) system developed to operate a humanoid robot head capable of visual tracking and servoing of human face through image processing. The robotic humanoid head named Amir-II, equipped with a camera and servoing mechanism is used as the plat...
