EMYS (EMotive headY System) is an expressive robotic head. It consists of three independent discs, the top and bottom of which are movable. The robot’s eyes, along with the vision system, are located in the middle disc. Thanks to its unique shape, the head is always perceived with great affection, and the emotions expressed by it are easily recognised. The modularity and flexibility of the robot’s control system allow for easy development of its abilities and adaptation to new applications. It already has a set of competences allowing for interaction with people, multi-channel perception of the surroundings, as well as downloading a lot of information from the Internet.
