Abstract

This paper presents a multimodal human-robot interaction based on fusion of speech and gesture. In the interface, a robot control command system is designed, which can transform the speech and gesture of users into commands that the robot can execute. Microsoft speech SDK is used in this system to collect the speech of the operator. Then, a corpus-based algorithm of maximum entropy classification for natural language understanding is employed to generate commands. Leap Motion is employed to capture the gesture of operator in this system. Interval Kalman Filter (IKF) is used to estimate the measured data to reduce the inherent noise of the sensor. The advantage of the proposed method is that the combination of speech and gesture makes the human-robot interaction more convenient and direct. Finally, a series of experiments were carried out to validate our method, and proved that it performed better than the other proposed methods.
