Problems solved by technology

However, the current dedicated humanoid entertainment robots can only play some simple music scores, and have the disadvantages of high pitch distortion, slow and monotonous beats, and some even only make some monotonous sounds, and cannot perform coordinated performances between actions and sounds
Piano performance skills are very demanding. To realize the coordination between the robot's actions and the music beat, it is very difficult to design the robot system. At present, there is no related patented technology.

Abstract

The piano playing robot includes robot body, hardware control system, mechanical executing system and software control system. The hardware control system is installed inside the abdomen and the software control system inside the memory of embedded controller. The mouth, eyelid, eyebrow, fingers of the robot are connected to corresponding solenoids; the solenoid drivers are connected to the data acquisition card; the arm, waist, leg and neck joints are connected to reducer of servo motor; the rotating coder of the servo motor is connected to the motion card; the CCD video cameras installed inside the eyes of the robot is connected to the image processing card; and the embedded controller, motion control card, data acquisition card and image processing card are installed in lamination mode. Based on the piano music beat, the robot plays like a true piano player flexibly and accurately to reach the aims of both education and amusement.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a piano performance robot, which can realize the vivid performance of the piano performance robot on the stage by adopting control, machinery and acousto-optic technology, embodies the perfect unity of high technology, entertainment and popular science, and belongs to the field of electromechanical control.
