ABSTRACT:
A robot apparatus1is a four-legged mobile robot, and leg units3A,3B,3C, and3D are connected to the left and side parts in the front and rear sides of a body unit2. Ahead unit4is connected to the front end of the body unit2. The head unit4has a mouth (jaw) part capable of biting and holding a toy200shaped like a bone. The mouth part is constituted by upper and lower jaw parts, and adopts a structure capable of biting and securely holding a bite part203of the bone200. A CPU as a control part executes programs according to an image recognition processing algorithm for recognizing the bone200, a bone-bite control algorithm for biting the bone, and a bone-bite detection algorithm for detecting the bone.
