Abstract:Humanoid head and facial expression is one of active domains in the study of robots, which arouses many researchers'interest. This paper introduces summarily situation of study in the making of humanoid head and producing of facial expression. Meanwhile, the future emphasis and developing direction of the study are forecasted.
