In this paper we present a robotic head MIRA
(Multimodal Interactive Robot Agent) which has been
developed for studying the learning of human robot
interaction and improving our understanding of
human robot interaction techniques. In this paper we
focus on two main aspects of the system; first, we
describe how the robot head learns to recognise faces
for supporting the interaction process between a
human and MIRA. Second, we show how MIRA can
learn to identify sound sources of interest and attend to
the source location improving the social interaction
effect. We propose that there is substantial potential
for learning visual and auditory features in order to
increase adaptability and robustness of robotic heads.
