Consideration of Service Robot with reference to Joruri Puppet, assuming Street fundraising activities

How can we attract people, and exchange messages smoothly? Our goal is to create a service robot that can effectively express itself by incorporating the accumulation of timeless techniques of traditional performing art "Ningyo Joruri" into movements and gestures of robots. For this purpose, we are developing and implementing the robot OSONO and its choreography based on Joruri puppets. As a first step toward applying OSONO2 to street fundraising, in this paper, we extend OSONO, a service robot already developed, extract choreography from the performances, apply it to real scenes of street fundraising, and integrate sensors and acoustics. In addition, we attempted to use LRF to measure the effects, as it is becoming increasingly demanding in terms of anonymity. As a result, we verified that the robot "OSONO2" is attractive at a large-scale exhibition and it is able to measure the effects of kimono color and sound. At the same time, it is confirmed the effectiveness of the LRF-based method.
