Robot Imitating Human for Assistance and Companionship

Published:08 March 2021Publication History

ABSTRACT

For the purpose of assistance and companionship, we have designed a robot that will be capable of imitating human movements. As seen in pets such as dogs, cats, the attachment grows between the human and the pet because of the pet's ability to reciprocate/react. Consequently, we thought of designing a robot that will reciprocate the person's movements. The design of the robot uses raspberry pie 3 board for interfacing microcontroller with webcam, DC Motors, recycled home products such as food tray, used empty container and a camera to build an autonomous robot imitating human using image processing.
