  • Can a Robot Be Perceived As a Developing Creature?
    538 HUMAN COMMUNICATION RESEARCH / October 2005 Can a Robot Be Perceived as a Developing Creature? Effects of a Robot’s Long-Term Cognitive Developments on Its Social Presence and People’s Social Responses Toward It KWAN MIN LEE NAMKEE PARK HAYEON SONG University of Southern California This study tests the effect of long-term artifi cial development of a robot on users’ feelings of social presence and social responses toward the robot. The study is a 2 (developmental capability: developmental versus fully matured) x 2 (number of participants: individual ver- sus group) between-subjects experiment (N = 40) in which participants interact with Sony’s robot dog, AIBO, for a month. The results showed that the developmental capability factor had signifi cant positive impacts on (a) perceptions of AIBO as a lifelike creature, (b) feel- ings of social presence, and (c) social responses toward AIBO. The number of participants factor, however, affected only the parasocial relationship and the buying intention variables. No interaction between the two factors was found. The results of a series of path analyses showed that feelings of social presence mediated participants’ social responses toward AIBO. We discuss implications of the current study on human–robot interaction, the computers are social actors (CASA) paradigm, and the study of (tele)presence. obots, once imagined only in science-fi ction fi lms, are now being used for various purposes. New applications of robots in thera- Rpeutic, educational, and entertainment environments have caused an important shift in the study of human–robot interaction (HRI). Rather than viewing robots as mere tools or senseless machines, researchers are beginning to see robots as social actors that can autonomously interact with humans in a socially meaningful way.

  • Mixed Reality Technologies for Novel Forms of Human-Robot Interaction
    Dissertation Mixed Reality Technologies for Novel Forms of Human-Robot Interaction Dissertation with the aim of achieving a doctoral degree at the Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Natural Sciences Dipl.-Inf. Dennis Krupke Human-Computer Interaction and Technical Aspects of Multimodal Systems Department of Informatics Universität Hamburg November 2019 Review Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Frank Steinicke Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Jianwei Zhang Drittgutachter: Prof. Dr. Eva Bittner Vorsitzende der Prüfungskomission: Prof. Dr. Simone Frintrop Datum der Disputation: 17.08.2020 “ My dear Miss Glory, Robots are not people. They are mechanically more perfect than we are, they have an astounding intellectual capacity, but they have no soul.” Karel Capek Abstract Nowadays, robot technology surrounds us and future developments will further increase the frequency of our everyday contacts with robots in our daily life. To enable this, the current forms of human-robot interaction need to evolve. The concept of digital twins seems promising for establishing novel forms of cooperation and communication with robots and for modeling system states. Machine learning is now ready to be applied to a multitude of domains. It has the potential to enhance artificial systems with capabilities, which so far are found in natural intelligent creatures, only. Mixed reality experienced a substantial technological evolution in recent years and future developments of mixed reality devices seem to be promising, as well. Wireless networks will improve significantly in the next years and thus, latency and bandwidth limitations will be no crucial issue anymore. Based on the ongoing technological progress, novel interaction and communication forms with robots become available and their application to real-world scenarios becomes feasible.

  • A Robotic New Hope: Opportunities, Challenges, and Ethical
    Technical University of Munich Munich Center for Technology in Society Institute for Ethics in Artificial Intelligence Research Brief – April 2021 A Robotic New Hope: Opportunities, Challenges, and Ethical Considerations of Social Robots by Auxane Boch, Laura Lucaj, Caitlin Corrigan Robotics technologies are now increasingly used in a multitude of ways related to social interaction with humans. Considering their expanding employment in many areas of everyday life, it is now crucial to understand the implications of robotic technology for users and society. In this Brief, we introduce the latest in social robot technology designed for human-centered services and offer an assessment of the ethical considerations needed to accompany their design and governance. Institute for Ethics in Artificial Intelligence Technical University of Munich In 2020, 3.13 million social and entertainment robots were sold worldwide (Statista & Vailshery, 2021). Indeed, robots are no longer confined to the manufacturing world. Robotics technologies are now increasingly used in a multitude of ways related to social interaction with humans, from teaching children, to protecting family homes, distributing medications in hospitals or serving as personal companions (Stroessner, 2020). Considering their increasing employment in many areas of everyday life, it is now crucial to understand the implications of robotic technology for users and society. In this Brief, we introduce the latest in social robot technology designed for human services and offer an assessment of the ethical considerations that need to accompany their design and governance. To understand the implications of such technology on society and individual users, a clear definition is needed. Due to the variety and complexity of tasks and behaviors robots with social intentions have to perform, there is no consensus on how to define these types of machines.

  • Robot Magic: a Robust Interactive Humanoid Entertainment Robot
    Robot Magic: A Robust Interactive Humanoid Entertainment Robot Kyle J. Morris1, Vladyslav Samonin1, John Anderson1, Meng Cheng Lau1, and Jacky Baltes2 1 Autonomous Agents Laboratory Department of Computer Science University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3T 2N2, Canada http://aalab.cs.umanitoba.ca/ 2 Department of Electrical Engineering National Taiwan Normal University Taipei, Taiwan Abstract. In recent years, there have been a number of popular robotics competitions whose intent is to advance the state of research by com- paring embodied entries against one another in real time. The IEEE Hu- manoid application challenge is intended to broaden these by allowing more open-ended entries, with a general theme within which entrants are challenged to create the most effective application involving a humanoid robot. This year's theme was Robot Magic, and this paper describes our first-place winning entry in the 2017 competition, running on a ROBO- TIS OP2 humanoid robot. We describe the overall agent design and contributions to perception, learning, control, and representation, which together support a robust live robot magic performance. 1 Introduction There are many ways of advancing robot technology and artificial intelligence, from studying component elements (mechatronics, kinematics, vision, learning) to building fully-functional agents for particular domains. The history of artificial intelligence research has generally shown the latter to be especially important, since studying components in isolation removes the effects of interaction with other components, and excludes factors that only embodiment brings. This is one of the main motivations for the evaluation of intelligent robotics in competi- tion settings [1], and such competitions have become both an important part of evaluating robotics research and as well as a driver for public interest in robotics and artificial intelligence.

  • Integrating an Entertainment Robot∗ 1 Introduction
    Integrating an Entertainment Robot∗ A. C. Domínguez Brito,y J. Cabrera Gámez, D. Hernández Sosa, M. Castrillón Santana, J. Lorenzo Navarro, J. Isern González, C. Guerra Artal, I. Pérez Pérez, A. Falcón Martel, M. Hernández Tejera, J. Méndez Rodríguez. Centro de Tecnología de los Sistemas y de la Inteligencia Articial (CeTSIA) Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria - SPAIN Abstract: In this paper we will present Eldi, a mobile robot that has been in operation at the Elder Museum of Science and Technology at Las Palmas de Gran Canaria since December 1999. This is an ongoing project that was organized in three dierent stages of which only the rst one has been accomplished. The initial phase, termed The Player, the second stage, actually under development, has been called "The Cicerone" and in the nal phase, termed The Vagabond, in which Eldi will be allowed to move erratically across the Museum. This paper will focus on the accomplished rst stage to succinctly describe the physical robot and the environment and demos developed. Finally we will summarize some important lessons learnt. Keywords: mobile robotics, entertainment robotics, agent architectures 1 Introduction Last years have revealed Education and Entertainment as promising, though demanding, new application scenarios for robotics with a great scientic, economic and social potential [5]. The interest raised by products like Sony's Aibo or the attention deserved by the media to projects as Sage [4], Rhino [3], Kismet [1] and, more recently, Minerva [2] demonstrate the fascination of the general public for these new fashion robotic pets. ∗This work has been partially supported by the UE/DGES research project 1FD1997-1580-C02-02, and by the research project PI/1999/153 funded by the Autonomous Government of Canary Islands - Gobierno de Canarias.
