An Iterative Interaction-Design Method for Multi-Modal Robot Communication
2020 29th IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN), 2020 The design space of human-robot interaction is large and multi-dimensional. A sound design requires a systematic theory-driven exploration, specification and refinement of design variables. There is a need for a practical method and tool to iteratively specify the content of the dialogue (e.g., speech acts) with the accompanying expressive behavior (e ...
