APPENDIX ■ ■ ■ Interview with Mark Tilden (Photo courtesy of WowWee Ltd.) WowWee courtesy of (Photo Figure A-1. Here’s Mark Tilden at the 2005 New York Toy Fair. I have used excerpts from this interview throughout the book where applicable, but I also wanted to print it in its entirety. Some things, like Mark’s wonderful commentary on Hong Kong cuisine and his off-the-cuff comments on everything and anything, just didn’t fit into the structure of The Robosapien Companion, but they will be of interest to anyone who is curious about or admires the man behind the robots. 291 292 APPENDIX ■ INTERVIEW WITH MARK TILDEN This interview was conducted on February 13, 2005, at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse in the Murray Hill neighborhood of midtown Manhattan, in New York City. I recorded it with an Olympus DM-10 voice recorder. The dining room at Wolfgang’s is known for its historic tiled ceilings designed by Raphael Guastavino. They are beautiful, but they are an acoustic night- mare! Fortunately, my trusty DM-10 was up to the task. I have edited this only very lightly, mainly breaks where we spoke to waiters and so on. Also note that during a portion of this interview, Mark is showing me a slideshow on a little portable LCD screen. Most of the pictures from the slideshow ended up in Chapter 3. But if during the interview he seems to be making a reference, chances are it is to something on the screen. Without further ado, here is the full text of the interview.

A Control Architecture for Dynamically Stable Gaits of Small Size Humanoid Robots
A CONTROL ARCHITECTURE FOR DYNAMICALLY STABLE GAITS OF SMALL SIZE HUMANOID ROBOTS Andrea Manni ¤;1, Angelo di Noi ¤ and Giovanni Indiveri ¤ ¤ Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell'Innovazione, Universit`a di Lecce, via per Monteroni, 73100 Lecce, Italy, Fax: +39 0832 297279, email:fandrea.manni, giovanni.indiveri, [email protected] Abstract: From the 1970's biped robots have had a large attention from the robotic research community. Yet the issue of controlling dynamically stable walking for arbitrary biped robots is still open. We propose a simple control architecture based on the use of the FRI (Foot Rotation Indicator) point and the support polygon. The major advantage of the proposed architecture is that motion planning (and eventually sensor based re-planning (slower feedback loop)) is limited to the leg joints whereas the trunk and arm degrees of freedom are controlled in closed loop (faster feedback loop) to achieve overall dynamic stability. Such architecture allows to decouple the problem of dynamic stable walking in the two relatively simpler problems of gait generation and robot stabilization. This architecture is particularly suited for small size robots having limited onboard computational power and limited sensor suits. The e®ectiveness of the proposed method has been validated through Matlabr simulations and experimental tests performed on a Robovie-MS platform. Copyright °c 2006 IFAC Keywords: control architecture, dynamically stable gait, foot rotation indicator, support polygon. 1. INTRODUCTION over twenty actuated degrees of freedom and gen- erally they carry some microcontroller electronics Humanoid robots are enjoying increasing popular- board for the low level control, i.e. to generate ity as their anthropomorphic body allows the in- target signals for the actuators.

Unified Humanoid Robotics Software Platform
Uniﬁed Humanoid Robotics Software Platform McGill, Stephen G. #1, Brindza, Jordan #3, Yi, Seung-Joon #2, Lee, Daniel D. #4 #Electrical and Systems Engineering Department, University of Pennsylvania 200 South 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, U.S.A. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract— Development of humanoid robots is increasing rapidly, and humanoids are occupying a larger percentage of robotics research. They are seen in competitions like RoboCup, as consumer toys like the RoboSapien from WowWee, and in various research and DIY community projects. Equipping these humanoid hardware platforms with simple software systems that provide basic functionality is both cumbersome and time consuming. In this paper, we present a software framework for simple humanoid behavior that abstracts away the particulars of speciﬁc humanoid hardware. Fig. 1.

Robots and Racism: Examining Racial Bias Towards Robots Arifah Addison
Robots and Racism: Examining Racial Bias towards Robots Arifah Addison HIT Lab New Zealand University of Canterbury Supervisors Chrisoph Bartneck (HIT Lab NZ), Kumar Yogeeswaran (Dept of Psychology) Thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Human Interface Technology June 2019 Abstract Previous studies indicate that using the `shooter bias' paradigm, people demon- strate a similar racial bias toward robots racialised as Black over robots racialised as White as they do toward humans of similar skin tones (Bartneck et al., 2018). However, such an effect could be argued to be the result of social priming. The question can also be raised of how people might respond to robots that are in the middle of the colour spectrum (i.e., brown) and whether such effects are moderated by the perceived anthropomorphism of the robots. Two experiments were conducted to examine whether shooter bias tendencies shown towards robots is driven by social priming, and whether diversification of robot colour and level of anthropomorphism influenced shooter bias. The results suggest that shooter bias is not influenced by social priming, and in- terestingly, introducing a new colour of robot removed shooter bias tendencies entirely. Contrary to expectations, the three types of robot were not perceived by the participants as having different levels of anthropomorphism. However, there were consistent differences across the three types in terms of participants' response times.
