Abstract
In our research, we develop the robot to combine with the consciousness and behavior which is the conscious and behavior robot (CONBE). In this paper we present the basis system in the CONBE robot that consist of the two main sections as the face recognition and robot gaze tracking. This system uses the face recognition using Fisherfaces that also refer to linear discriminant analysis (LDA). For the robot gaze tracking, we implement with the head of the CONBE robot that has a camera, two displays used for robot eyes and the actuators of 2 degrees of freedom. The actuators use to control the robot gaze for tracking the human face which the robot can recognize. In this paper, we experiment and present the results of the face recognition system and the tracking control system such as the tracking error and time.
