The interest in assistance and personal robots is constantly growing. Therefore robots need new, sophisticated interaction abilities. Psychologists point out that most of the human-human interaction is conducted nonverbally. For that reason, researchers try to enable humanoid robots to realize nonverbal communication signals. This paper presents a compact, lightweight, and low-cost arm and hand design to enable humanoid robots to use gestures as nonverbal interaction signals.
