Resumo

A robotic head has a key role in exchanging information to indicate its emotional state or communicate during an interaction. Therefore, the main target of this paper is to present the open-source and low-cost robot head, known as Two-Ts, which is developed using 3D printing technology. Its main feature is to reproduce, even with mechanical limitations, the six basic and universal emotions created according to the Facial Action Coding System (FACS). Two steps are necessary for its development. In the first step, as the objective of the Two-Ts is to have characteristics closer to a human head, a Computer Tomography (CT) is performed to scan images of the bones of the skull and jaw of Tamires, author of this paper. In the second step, using the generated images, the structural/mechanical design of the Virtual Two-Ts is modeled and simulated in Autodesk Fusion 360. Before developing the Real Two-Ts, the electronic project is also defined, considering the vision, hearing, and speech systems. In the simulation and real experiment, the Virtual and Real Two-Ts perform basic movements, such as moving the eyes, eyebrows, head, among others. In addition, the emotions of happiness, fear, disgust, anger, surprise, and sadness are implemented, and the results are analyzed. For this, a system is developed to identify and compare the emotions generated on the face of Tamires with those of Virtual and Real Two-Ts. (AU)
