The goal of this study is to develop an algorithm to determine the bowing and the fingering parameters from note information for anthropomorphic violin-playing robot. We want to reveal the role of "Kansei" in the algorithm. We believe that the results will improve the robot's communication ability. Although we are developing an anthropomorphic violin-playing robot, we want to reveal the relationship between the bowing parameters and the sound parameters more precisely, which are needed to construct the algorithm. Therefore, we are designing and building a bowing-machine to take the data. In this paper, we introduce our concept, and design of the bowing-machine.
