This paper presents the design, implementation and application of a humanoid interaction robot (H10). In interdisciplinary cooperation H10 was developed as a case study to operate at points of sale, information desks and demonstrations. If the user given speech input matches an entry of the adaptive database, H10 will react with a suitable answer. Synchronously to the speech generation, face animation and pre-defined gestures of hands and arms are triggered by the core of the system. The principles of the speech, gesture and physical interaction interface as well as some fundamental mechanic and electronic details are described.
