Robot Heads
Robot Heads is an animated React component library that renders customizable robot heads to visually display an agent's current activity.
Robot Heads is an npm component library created by Fayaz Ahmed for React applications. It renders animated robot heads designed to represent states such as idle, thinking, searching, listening, speaking, working, happy, error, and sleeping. Developers configure the components directly in code using properties like shape, color, trim color, screen color, animation speed, and antenna visibility. Available shapes include rectangle, square, circle, and hexagon. The component visualizes idle actions like looking around, blinking, and hopping, giving software agents a clear visual presence.
