Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 7:
8. A companion robot, comprising:
a sensor module configured to detect and collect sensing information of a companion object and emotion information of a target object when the target object interacts with the companion object, wherein each of the emotion information and the sensing information comprises at least one of view information or voice information, the companion object is a caregiver or a guardian of the target object;
a processor configured to:
extract an emotion feature quantity based on the emotion information;
determine, based on the emotion feature quantity, an emotional pattern used by the target object to interact with the companion object;
determine, based on the emotional pattern, a degree of interest of the target object in the companion object;
extract behavioral data of the companion object from the sensing information based on the degree of interest;

screen the behavioral data to extract a behavioral key feature, and generate simulated object data by using the key feature,
wherein the behavioral data comprises a body action, the behavioral key feature comprises a body key point or a body action unit, and the key feature is generated through statistical learning or machine learning; or
wherein the behavioral data comprises an expression, the behavioral key feature comprises a partial face key point or a facial action unit, and the key feature is generated through pre-specification or machine learning; or
wherein the behavioral data comprises a tone, the behavioral key feature comprises an acoustic signal feature in voice input of the companion object, and the key feature is generated through pre-specification or machine learning;
generate an action instruction based on the simulated object data; and

a behavior execution module configured to receive the action instruction of the processor and interact with the target object.
