Robotization and the domestic sphere
New Media & Society, 2017The aim of this article is to advance theoretically the debate on the interrelation between robotization and the domestic sphere. I adopt a critical approach to the political economy about the diffusion of machines in the domestic sphere (unexpected and not predicted by the classical theories of capital) and the automation of everyday life, including ...

Hi robot [domestic robot developments]
Engineering & Technology, 2008Microsoft founder Bill Gates likens the challenge of putting robots in every home to that faced by the PC pioneers, as they attempted to put a computer in every home. Despite the difficulties, the level of excitement and expectation reminds the author of the time during the convergence of new technology when one dreamed of the day when a computer would

Hybridity as Design Strategy for Service Robots to Become Domestic Products
CHI Extended Abstracts, 2020Service robots have yet to occupy niches in domestic environments beyond vacuuming and lawn mowing. This can only happen by providing an alternative experience rather than mimicking and competing with humans, pets and already available appliances.

Users' preferences of robots for domestic use
Proceedings of the 2014 ACM/IEEE international conference on Human-robot interaction, 2014This study identifies the design preferences of robots for domestic use. In an online survey, participants rated 16 robot pictures on several evaluation criteria. Results show that overall anthropomorphic robots are more positively rated than either zoomorphic, caricatured or functional robots. Moreover, negative feelings towards robot (e.g.

A hardware intelligent processing accelerator for domestic service robots
Adv. Robotics, 2020We present a method for implementing hardware intelligent processing accelerator on domestic service robots. These domestic service robots support human life; therefore, they are required to recognize environments using intelligent processing.

Caesar: an intelligent domestic service robot
Intelligent Service Robotics, 2012In this paper we present Caesar, an intelligent domestic service robot. In domestic settings for service robots complex tasks have to be accomplished. Those tasks benefit from deliberation, from robust action execution and from flexible methods for human---robot interaction that account for qualitative notions used in natural language as well as human ...

Designing domestic robots with personality
2011Research has shown that robots tend to induce the perception of personality through their behaviour and appearance. It has therefore been suggested that the concept of personality can be used as a guiding principle for designing the interface and interactions with robotic appliances.
