This project aims at creating a robot capable of drawing artistic
portraits. The application is purely entertaining and based on
existing tools for face detection and image reconstruction, as well
as classical tools for trajectory planning of a 4 DOFs robot arm. The
innovation of the application lies in the care we took to make the
whole process as human-like as possible. The robot's motions and its
drawings follow a style characteristic to humans. The portraits
conserve the esthetics features of the original images. The whole
process is interactive, using speech recognition and speech synthesis
to conduct the scenario.
