The human sciences have demonstrated that gesture is a critical element of human communication. While existing graphical solutions are appropriate for virtual agents, solving arm trajectories for physically embodied robots requires that we consider t...

In order for anthropomorphic robots to communicate with people in a human-like way they need to produce gestures along with speech. Beat gestures are a key category of gestures, accompanying emphasis and timing of talk. The standard approach for auto... Read More about Beat gesture generation rules for human-robot interaction.
