Systems and methods for managing conversations between a robot computing device and a user are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: initiate a first-time user experience sequence with the user; teach the user the robot computing capabilities and/or characteristics; initiate, utilizing a dialog manager, a conversation with the user; receive, one or more command files from the user via one or more microphones; and generate conversation response files and communicating the generated conversation files to the dialog manager in response to the one or more received user global command files to initiate an initial conversation exchange.

Systems and methods for short- and long-term dialog management between a robot computing device/digital companion and a user

Systems and methods for creating a view of an environment are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive parameters and measurements from at least two of one or more microphones, one or more imaging devices, a radar sensor, a lidar sensor, and/or one or more infrared imaging devices located in a computing device; analyze the parameters and measurements received from the multimodal input; generate a world map of the environment around the computing device; and repeat the receiving of parameters and measurements from the input devices and the analyzing steps on a periodic basis to maintain a persistent world map of the environment.

Multimodal beamforming and attention filtering for multiparty interactions

Systems and methods for authoring and modifying presentation conversation files are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive, at a renderer module, voice files, visual effect files, facial expression files, and/or mobility files; analyze, by the language processor module, the voice files, the visual effect files, the facial expression files, and/or mobility files follow guidelines of a multimodal authoring system; generate, by the renderer module, one or more presentation conversation files based at least in part on the received voice files, visual effect files, facial expression files, and/or mobility files; test, at an automatic testing system, the one or more presentation conversation files to verify correct operation of a computing device that receives the one or more presentation conversation files as an input; and identify, by a multimodal review module, changes to be made to the voice input files, the visual effect files, the facial expression files, and/or the mobility files.

A robotic cleaner includes a cleaning assembly for cleaning a surface and a main robot body. The main robot body houses a drive system to cause movement of the robotic cleaner and a microcontroller to control the movement of the robotic cleaner. The cleaning assembly is located in front of the drive system and a width of the cleaning assembly is greater than a width of the main robot body. A robotic cleaning system includes a main robot body and a plurality of cleaning assemblies for cleaning a surface. The main robot body houses a drive system to cause movement of the robotic cleaner and a microcontroller to control the movement of the robotic cleaner. The cleaning assembly is located in front of the drive system and each of the cleaning assemblies is detachable from the main robot body and each of the cleaning assemblies has a unique cleaning function.

Application of localization, positioning and navigation systems for robotic enabled mobile products

An integrated intelligent system includes a first intelligent electronic device, a second intelligent electronic device, a transferable intelligent control device (TICD) and a cross product bus. The first intelligent electronic device performs a first function and the second intelligent electronic device performs a second function. The cross product bus couples the first intelligent electronic device to the transferable intelligent control device. The TICD partially controls behaviors of the intelligent electronic device by sending commands over the cross product bus to the first intelligent electronic device and the TICD partially controls behaviors of the second intelligent electronic device to perform the second function. The TICD is first attached to the first intelligent electronic device to partially control the behaviors of the first electronic device, then detached from the first electronic device, and then attached to the second intelligent electronic device to perform the second function.

Transferable intelligent control device

Systems and methods for human-machine interaction. An adaptive behavioral control system of a human-machine interaction system controls an interaction sub-system to perform a plurality of actions for a first action type in accordance with a computer-behavioral policy, each action being a different alternative action for the action type. The adaptive behavioral control system detects a human reaction of an interaction participant to the performance of each action of the first action type from data received from a human reaction detection sub-system. The adaptive behavioral control system stores information indicating each detected human reaction in association with information identifying the associated action. In a case where stored information indicating detected human reactions for the first action type satisfy an update condition, the adaptive behavioral control system updates the computer-behavioral policy for the first action type.

Robot

A robot configured to navigate a surface, the robot comprising a movement mechanism; a logical map representing data about the surface and associating locations with one or more properties observed during navigation; an initialization module configured to establish an initial pose comprising an initial location and an initial orientation; a region covering module configured to cause the robot to move so as to cover a region; an edge-following module configured to cause the robot to follow unfollowed edges; a control module configured to invoke region covering on a first region defined at least in part based at least part of the initial pose, to invoke region covering on least one additional region, to invoke edge-following, and to invoke region covering cause the mapping module to mark followed edges as followed, and cause a third region covering on regions discovered during edge-following.
