Abstract:
When receiving information from a recognition object, an emotion module determines the type of the input information and changes the emotion level of each emotional unit by using the parameters corresponding to the input information. The emotion module selects one at the highest emotion level from the emotional units having greater emotion levels than a threshold. The selected emotional unit communicates the information to an object, such as a motion-generating object, which requires the information.
