Abstract

In this research we intend to use a robot as a tool to offer a tour guide to the Industrial Informatics and Robotics Laboratory from Research & Development Institute of Braşov. In this laboratory there are a lot of devices used for research and every time when new visitors or students come to see them, an operator must explain what each device is used for. Therefore, we decided to use one of the robots (namely Nao robot from Aldebaran Robotics) to welcome new visitors and make them a tour of the lab, giving explanations about the research that take place in this laboratory. Nao is very versatile and therefore is suitable for this purpose, being able to walk, to make gestures with its arms and hands, to speak and also to interact with peoples. We have used Choregraphe, a graphical interface where are used drag and drop boxes that can be interconnected one with other to create simple behaviours. The robot will stay in a fixed position, at the entrance in laboratory and whenever a visitor will come, it will be ready to make a tour.
