Abstract
To expand use of the mobile robot Step-On Interface (SOI), originally targeting maintenance, training, and recovery of human physical and cognitive functions, we introduce a “Truly-Tender-Tailed” (T3, pronounced tee-cube) tag-playing robot as a “Friendly Amusing Mobile” (FAM) function. Displaying a previously prepared bitmap (BMP) image and speeding up display make it easy to design button placement and other screen parameters using a painting software package. The BMP-image scope matrix simplifies step detection and recognition and the motion trajectory design editor facilitates robot behavior design.
