  Today, as seen in smart speakers, spoken dialogue technology is rapidly
advancing to enable human-like interaction. However, current dialogue systems
cannot pay attention not only to the content of speech, but also to the way of
speaking and eye contact and facial expressions, while watching the facial
expressions of the person with whom one is speaking. Therefore, this study
participated in a Japanese competition called the "Dialogue Robot Competition"
and attempted to develop a dialogue system that includes control of not only
the content of speech but also the robot's facial expressions and gaze in order
to realize a humanoid robot that can naturally interact with humans.
