Aim of this project is the development of a robot that can operate autonomously at exhibitions and malls to attract people to a given location, by showing interesting behaviors.

The robot first exhibition has been at [Robotica 2009], within [HI-Tech Expo] at [Fiera di Milano], on November 23-25, 2009. Here, the robot had to go around in an area delimited by a white stripe and contact verbally and with gestures people entering the area, in order to attract them to the booth.

The robot body has been implemented in collaboration with [Pupazzia], who has designed and implemented the external part.

Francesco Balzani is in charge of developing the behaviors, using MRT.

Davide Rizzi has implemented the hardware and control SW starting from a Janus base originally developed for [Robocup]
