It is not uncommon for robots to enter the home to help sweep and mop the floor, but the cute Pepper robot can interact with people by voice and complete the pouring command!
Pepper helps pour water seems simple, in fact, the whole process involves a variety of functions such as cup recognition, object positioning and navigation. When Pepper receives the instruction to pour water through voice recognition, it begins to look for the water cup in three-dimensional space, locates the water cup through visual recognition, and walks to the water cup through autonomous navigation to complete the action of picking up the water cup。
Pepper's five fingers are connected to a hollow cup motor through a floating plate and wire, which makes Pepper's fingers more flexible and natural, and can perform more functions. After picking up the cup, Pepper navigates again, and finally pours the water to the customer, completing the entire service process.
