76 Socially Intelligent Agents2. www.daimi.au.dk/∼chili/elektra.html.3. One RCX controls the emotional state of the robot on the grounds of tactile stimulation applied tothe feet, while the other controls its facial displays.4. Visit www.daimi.au.dk/∼chili/feelix/feelix home.htm for a video of Feelix’s basic expressions.5. I have also built some demos where Feelix shows chimerical expressions that combine an emotionin the upper part of the face—eyebrows—and a different one in the lower part—mouth.6. Tests were performed by 86 subjects—41 children, aged 9–10, and 45 adults, aged 15–57. Allchildren and most adults were Danish. Adults were university students and staff unfamiliar with the project,and visitors to the lab.7. I am grateful to Mark Scheeff for pointing me to this idea, and to Hideki Kozima for helping metrack it down. Additional information can be found at www.arclight.net/∼pdb/glimpses/valley.html.8. According to Irenäus Eibl-Eibesfeldt, the baby-scheme is an “innate” response to treat as an infantevery object showing certain features present in children. See for example I.

As an example, the speed at which the expression is formed was perceived as particularly significantin sadness and surprise, especially in the motion of eyebrows.References[1] C. Breazeal.
