Abstract
This paper describes the principles of mimic recognition and reproduction for robots with ability to simulate facial emotional states of a human face. A new method of describing and managing the emotional state from basic emotional states is proposed. The method introduces a more natural way to control facial states and can be combined with a proposed natural speech interface model. The research results were tested in real conditions on several events using robots with silicone human-like faces.
