Embodied social interaction for robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
A key aspect of service robotics for everyday use is the motion of systems in close proximity to humans. It is here essential that the robot exhibits a behaviour that signals safe motion and awareness of the other actors in its environment. To facilitate this there is a need to endow the system with facilities for detection and tracking of objects in the vicinity of the platform, and to design a control law that enables motion generation which is considered socially acceptable. We present a system for in-door navigation in which the rules of proxemics are used to define interaction strategies for the platform.

Where Robots and Virtual Agents Meet A Survey of Social Interaction Research across Milgram’s Reality-Virtuality Continuum
Traditionally, social interaction research has concentrated on either fully virtually embodied agents (e.g. embodied conversational agents) or fully physically embodied agents (e.g. robots). For some time, however, both areas have started augmenting their agents’ capabilities for social interaction using ubiquitous and intelligent environments. We are placing different agent systems for social ...
متن کاملDesigning Embodied Cues for Dialog with Robots
Of all computational systems, robots are unique in their ability to afford embodied interaction using the wider range of human communicative cues. Research on human communication provides strong evidence that embodied cues, when used effectively, elicit social, cognitive, and task outcomes such as improved learning, rapport, motivation, persuasion, and collaborative task performance. While this...
متن کاملEmbodied Cognition for Autonomous Interactive Robots
In the past, notions of embodiment have been applied to robotics mainly in the realm of very simple robots, and supporting low-level mechanisms such as dynamics and navigation. In contrast, most human-like, interactive, and socially adept robotic systems turn away from embodiment and use amodal, symbolic, and modular approaches to cognition and interaction. At the same time, recent research in ...
متن کاملDesigning Embodied Cues for Dialogue with Robots
WINTER 2011 17 One of the most promising concepts that emerged in the last two decades of computer science research is embodied interaction — representing computational intelligence in and offering interaction through physical or simulated ‘‘bodies.” Such representations vary from physical artifacts (such as tangible interfaces) to biological forms (such as humanlike agents and robots) and offe...
متن کاملHuman-Robot Interaction with Embodied Creative Systems
As we develop interactive systems involving computational models of creativity, issues around our interaction with these systems will become increasingly important. In particular, the interaction between human and computational creators presents an unusual and ambiguous power relation for those familiar with typical humancomputer interaction. These issues may be particularly pronounced with emb...

In order to take the developing field of Social Robotics a stage further, this work investigates mixed reality in embodied social agents. The Virtual Robotic Workbench is employed which provides a versatile framework for experimentation in interoperability and cooperation between heterogeneous robots (real, simulated and virtual) and humans in multi-reality domains. Explicit social interaction,...
