ALT Completes Development of Next-Generation Robot Interaction Technology View original image

Since 2020, ALT has served as the lead research institution for a national project aimed at developing robotics technology, and has developed next-generation technology. This technology is called "HRI (Human-Robot Interaction)," and is characterized by its ability to analyze user emotions, facial expressions, and actions in real time through vision, voice, and touch recognition, as well as its integration of a ChatGPT-based conversational function. Through this project, ALT has also completed the development of an integrated interaction control app in addition to HRI.


HRI technology is considered a key element for smooth communication and rapport between users and robots. Recently, global big tech companies have been actively developing technology not only for robots to perform tasks but also for communication with humans. Meta is currently conducting research through its "PARTNR" project, which aims to provide new benchmarks and datasets for HRI, studying how robots operate in collaborative environments where they interact with humans using natural language.


Apple recently published a paper on its new robotics framework "ELEGANT," unveiling its proprietary technology. This technology is designed to help robots move more naturally when interacting with people. Apple is reportedly developing a desktop-type home robot, and the new framework is expected to be applied to this robot.


A company representative stated, "We have succeeded in developing HRI technology related to robot interaction through years of research and development," adding, "Since this technology can also be linked with newly developed AI devices, we expect to generate business synergy."



Meanwhile, ALT plans to change its company name to ALT.
