XENIOS
The XENIOS project, is aiming at the development of a user-robot communication system, based on visual data perception, voice processing and natural language generation. The system will be installed in robotic platforms, which will be used in museums and exhibitions, for guiding the visitors and provide them with information, either naturally in the area, or remotely via the World Wide Web.
