ABSTRACT
We demonstrate an interactive conversation with an android named ERICA. In this demonstration the user can converse with ERICA on a number of topics. We demonstrate both the dialog management system and the eye gaze behavior of ERICA used for indicating attention and turn taking.

Spontaneous spoken dialogues with the furhat human-like robot head
HRI '14: Proceedings of the 2014 ACM/IEEE international conference on Human-robot interactionFurhat [1] is a robot head that deploys a back-projected animated face that is realistic and human-like in anatomy. Furhat relies on a state-of-the-art facial animation architecture allowing accurate synchronized lip movements with speech, and the ...
Multimodal multiparty social interaction with the furhat head
ICMI '12: Proceedings of the 14th ACM international conference on Multimodal interactionWe will show in this demonstrator an advanced multimodal and multiparty spoken conversational system using Furhat, a robot head based on projected facial animation. Furhat is a human-like interface that utilizes facial animation for physical robot heads ...
Multimodal human discourse: gesture and speech
Gesture and speech combine to form a rich basis for human conversational interaction. To exploit these modalities in HCI, we need to understand the interplay between them and the way in which they support communication. We propose a framework for the ...
