Abstract

This paper proposes a humanoid robot performance system for performing in public places, such as an event, exhibition, or street performance. The system of modular structures can be moved easily, and can be played by a module or a combination of modules. The system developed with open source-based software and hardware is easy to adapt and improve. The robot performance control program for controlling robots, displays, audios, videos, and performance instruments was developed using the open source language, Processing. The performance instruments were developed using the open source hardware, Arduino. The contents of the robot performance were composed of scene-specific image, background audio, computer graphics, and videos. For their control and synchronization, the performance control program communicates with the humanoid robots and the performance instruments. In addition, performance accessories required to represent the performance concepts are produced by 3D modeling and printing. In a public place, the robot performance is performed with the theme of celebrating a Halloween day.

본 논문은 행사나 전시장 또는 길거리 공연이 가능한 휴머노이드(Humanoid) 로봇 공연 시스템을 제안한다. 본 공연 시스템의 공연 장치들은 모듈 구조로 이동이 쉽고 모듈별 독립 또는 협연이 가능하다. 로봇 공연 시스템은 개선 및 개작이 쉽도록 오픈 소스 기반의 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어로 개발한다. 로봇 공연 시스템에서 로봇, 디스플레이, 오디오, 비디오 및 개별 공연 장치를 제어하는 공연 제어 프로그램은 오픈 소스 언어인 프로세싱(Processing)으로 작성되며 로봇을 이용한 연주 장치와 무대 장치는 오픈 소스 하드웨어인 아두이노(Arduino)를 기반으로 제작된다. 로봇 공연 컨텐츠는 장면별로 이미지, 오디오, 컴퓨터 그래픽 및 비디오 영상 등으로 구성되며 이들을 실행하고 제어하는 로봇 공연 프로그램은 장면별로 로봇 및 공연 장치들과 동기화를 위해 통신한다. 또한 공연에서 주제 표현이 필요한 공연 소품은 3D 모델링 후 3D 프린팅으로 제작한다. 본 로봇 공연 시스템의 컨텐츠는 할로윈 축제를 주제로 구성하며 할로윈 날 전후로 전시장 또는 경연장과 같은 공공장소에서 공연된다.
