Abstract
A robot body is not only an active unit but also a sensing unit. This paper describes a humanoid that integrates stereo vision, full-body tactile sensor, sound sensors and wrist force sensors into a sensor image. The sensor image reflects the current state of the environment and is regarded as all the input to the robot brain in this system. The brain program processes a series of sensor images and controls its body using them. The robot is remote-brained and designed to be a testbed to do research on sensor based behaviors of a full-body humanoid. This paper describes the design concept and the details of the system.Keywords
