Annie
Annie is a first-generation humanoid robot developed by Anywit Robotics featuring a highly expressive animatronic face with 34 degrees of freedom, surpassing many competitors in facial expressiveness. It supports advanced AI-driven interaction capabilities including gaze tracking, user identity recognition, emotion perception, and autonomous emotional response generation. Annie’s dialogue system is backed by a large language model enabling multilingual speech interaction with voice recognition, semantic understanding, and voice-lip synchronization for realistic conversations. The robot integrates multimodal interaction technology from iFlytek, enhancing speech recognition and cloud-based Q&A. Designed for standardized mass production, Annie is aimed at applications requiring human-like social interaction and expressive communication.
