Abstract :
In this paper, the gesture and facial expression is mainly focused to achieve the smooth communication on telerobot systems. The facial expressions has been considered as a most significant factor in telecommunications, such as teleservices. To realize the real-time facial expression transportation system, we proposed the facial expression space (FES) and a correspondence technique between each personal facial expression spaces. Then, real time facial expression transportation system is developed, which transport the facial expression but not the image itself. This final system is able to display the same facial expressions in other persons, and in cartoon characters. The experimental results show the validity of these criteria
