Abstract
This paper analyzes emotional expressions of an android head system according to gender and age. We use an EveR-4 H33 controlled by thirty-three motors for facial expression. EveR-4 H33 is a head system for an android face consists of three layers: a mechanical layer, an inner cover layer and an outer cover layer. Facial expressions of robots are different from the purposes of robots. In addition, feeling of emotional expressions is also different from humans depending on age, gender, etc. Therefore, we find the appropriate uses of EveR-4 H33 in this paper. EveR-4 H33 shows her facial expressions about some emotions. Then, audiences of exhibition evaluate her facial expressions by enjoying a game of emotional correction. We analyze the results of the game according to gender and age, and decide appropriate uses of EveR-4 H33.
