Impact of robot responsiveness and adult involvement on children's social behaviours in human-robot interaction
A key challenge in developing engaging social robots is creating convincing, autonomous and responsive agents, which users perceive, and treat, as social beings. As a part of the collaborative project: Expressive Agents for Symbiotic Education and Learning (EASEL), this study examines the impact of autonomous response to children’s speech, by the humanoid robot Zeno, on their interactions with ...
متن کاملTowards a Synthetic Tutor Assistant: The EASEL Project and its Architecture
Robots are gradually but steadily being introduced in our daily lives. A paramount application is that of education, where robots can assume the role of a tutor, a peer or simply a tool to help learners in a specific knowledge domain. Such endeavor posits specific challenges: affective social behavior, proper modelling of the learner’s progress, discrimination of the learner’s utterances, expre...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study on Blinking and Eye Movement Detection via EEG Signals for Human-Robot Interaction Purposes Based on a Spherical 2-DOF Parallel Robot
Blinking and eye movement are one of the most important abilities that most people have, even people with spinal cord problem. By using this ability these people could handle some of their activities such as moving their wheelchair without the help of others. One of the most important fields in Human-Robot Interaction is the development of artificial limbs working with brain signals. The purpos...
متن کاملTowards a Child-Robot Symbiotic Co-Development: a Theoretical Approach
One of the main characteristics for an effective learning is the possibility for learners to choose their own ways and pace of learning, according to their personal previous experiences and needs. Social interaction during the learning process has a crucial role to the skills that learners may develop. In this paper, we present a theoretical approach, which considers relevant theories of child’...
متن کاملInteraction and Task Patterns in Symbiotic, Mixed-Initiative Human-Robot Interaction
In this paper we explain our concept of Interaction and Task Patterns, and discuss how such patterns can be applied to support mixed-initiative in symbiotic human-robot interaction both with service and industrial robotic systems.
