Abstract
Disclosed herein are an interaction apparatus and method. The interaction apparatus includes an input unit for receiving multimodal information including an image and a voice of a target to allow the interaction apparatus to interact with the target, a recognition unit for recognizing turn-taking behavior of the target using the multimodal information, and an execution unit for taking an activity for interacting with the target based on results of recognition of the turn-taking behavior.
