The Thinking Head Attention and Behavioural System (THAMBS) manages all high-level aspects of the interaction between the Articulated Head (an interactive sociable robot) and the user(s)/environment including the generation of response behaviour except for conversational matters that are taken care of by a chatbot. THAMBS goes beyond straightforward action selection insofar as it is also concerned with determining the specific characteristics of the motor behaviour associated with the response and in that behaviours can interact with each other and can change the way the sensory input is processed. It consists of four modular subsystems: (1) a perception system, (2) an attention system, (3) a central control system, and (4) a motor system. THAMBS is implemented in Matlab (The MathWorks, Inc) and following object-oriented programming principles, its subsystems are represented as classes to ensure their modularity.
