“The novelty of our system lies in the unified framework that enables both robots to perform synchronously using a centralized control architecture, which significantly reduces latency and ensures real-time communication,” said the team in a statement.
By introducing heuristic models for real-time musical improvisation, enhancing social interaction abilities to engage audiences, and refining synchronization algorithms for better timing, future research expands on this foundation.
According to the study, the study highlights the transformative potential of humanoid robots in music and beyond, paving the way for applications in education, therapy, and public engagement by demonstrating their ability to interact, adapt, and collaborate creatively in real-world scenarios.
