Title:
STANDBY MODE OF A HUMANOID ROBOT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/185709
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
There is disclosed a computer-implemented method of executing a standby mode for a robot, comprising the steps of measuring one or more parameters associated with one or more parts of the robot (e.g. the temperature of one or more motors); receiving one or more standby optimization rules associated with said parameters (e.g. maximizing the dissipation of the heat of the motor), and executing one or more received standby optimization rules (e.g. executing a body animation to cool down motors). The monitored parameters comprise motor temperature measures and/or energy consumption values and/or values quantifying signs of wear. Optimization rules comprise the minimization of the consumption of energy and/or the minimization of wear and/or the maximization of the dissipation of the heat. In developments, a predefined animation can be associated a valuable social engagement score. Further aspects are disclosed, including the optional use of accessories. System aspects and computer programs are described.
