An LMA-Based Emotion Expressing Method for Aerial Robot

A method for the aerial robots' emotion expressing by simulating humans through the changes of trajectories of 3D motion is researched. Aiming at the problem of the perception to the emotion expressed through a trajectory in 3D space, a trajectory-emotion standard set is designed. For the problem of designing the multi-parameter trajectory, an emotion expressing model based on the parameters of the trajectory is established by using Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) theory. With this model, the emotions can be expressed by changing the trajectory according to the changes of emotional states. The effectiveness and sufficiency of this method are proved by experiments.
