A robotic system that includes a robot and a remote station. The remote station can generate control commands that are transmitted to the robot through a broadband network. The control commands can be interpreted by the robot to induce action such as robot movement or focusing a robot camera. The robot can generate reporting commands that are transmitted to the remote station through the broadband network. The reporting commands can provide positional feedback or system reports on the robot.

The robot includes a sensor unit sensing external environment information, a database unit storing a predetermined list including information on types of behavior the robot is allowed, a user's reaction corresponding to each behavior of the robot, and favorite objects of the robot, a primary emotion generation unit generating an emotion corresponding to characteristics of the sensed information when the sensed information exceeds a predetermined threshold value, and a secondary emotion generation unit generating an emotion corresponding to characteristics of the sensed information based on the information sensed by the sensor unit, the list stored in the database unit, the amount of internal power of the robot, internal information on the robot indicating the existence of an operational error and an elapse of time.

The invention relates to a system of an indoor robot for locating a mobile terminal based on bluetooth technology. The system of the indoor robot for locating the mobile terminal based on bluetooth technology comprises an indoor robot, a server, a bluetooth node and a mobile terminal; the indoor robot receives the instruction from the server for scanning indoor scene, returning the scanned data to the server for establishing initial indoor map; the server sets the icon of the bluetooth node on the obtained indoor map and calculates the corresponding coordinate of the bluetooth node for forming a standard indoor map; setting bluetooth node in practical scene by contrasting the coordinate of the indoor bluetooth node; establishing association relationship between the bluetooth node and the server; the mobile terminal is conneted with the bluetooth node and is used for sending the information of the bluetooth node to the server; the server detects the location of the bluetooth node, which is nearest to the mobile terminal and obtains the coordinate A of the bluetooth node; the absolute coordinate B of the mobile terminal is determined according to the location relationship between the bluetooth node and the mobile terminal; the server sends the information of the coordinate B to the robot; the robot locates the mobile terminal.

A security robot that boards a mobile unit to protect the mobile unit from theft is provided. The robot has an internal sensor such as an acceleration sensor installed at the robot and generating an output indicative of condition inside the robot, an external sensor such as CCD cameras installed at the robot and generating an output indicative of condition outside the robot, an abnormality degree discriminator discriminating a degree of abnormality that the mobile unit is experiencing based on information obtained from the outputs of the internal sensor and the external sensor, and an action controller taking preventive action in response to the discriminated degree of abnormality. With this, it becomes possible to discriminate the degree of abnormal situations and act accordingly in response.
