Robot Gaze Behavior Affects Honesty in Human-Robot Interaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2021
As the use of humanoid robots proliferates, an increasing amount of people may find themselves face-to-“face” with a robot in everyday life. Although there is a plethora of information available on facial social cues and how we interpret them in the ...

Does attributing mental states to a robot influence accessibility of information represented during reading?

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2022
When we read fiction, we encounter characters that interact in the story. As such, we encode that information and comprehend the stories. Prior studies suggest that this comprehension process is facilitated by taking the perspective of characters during ...

Trusting social robots

open access: yesAI and Ethics, 2022
AbstractIn this paper, I argue that we need a more robust account of our ability and willingness to trust social robots. I motivate my argument by demonstrating that existing accounts of trust and of trusting social robots are inadequate. I identify that it is the feature of a façade or deception inherent in our engagement with social robots that both ...

Upper limb exercise with physical and virtual robots: Visual sensitivity affects task performance

open access: yesPaladyn, 2021
We investigated the influence of visual sensitivity on the performance of an imitation task with the robot R1 in its virtual and physical forms. Virtual and physical embodiments offer different sensory experience to the users.

Social robotic donuts

open access: yesInteractions, 2019
In order to broaden the design space for social robot design, we created two air-actuated donutshaped social robots: a small uniform silicone version and a more organic latex version. Our intent was to move away from typical human or animal formmimicry, focusing instead on elastic expression, ambiguous form, and playful behaviors.

Social inclusion of robots depends on the way a robot is presented to observers

open access: yesPaladyn, 2022
Research has shown that people evaluate others according to specific categories. As this phenomenon seems to transfer from human–human to human–robot interactions, in the present study we focused on (1) the degree of prior knowledge about technology, in ...

Modulating the Non-Verbal Social Signals of a Humanoid Robot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this demonstration we present a repertoire of social signals generated by the humanoid robot Pepper in the context of the EU-funded project MuMMER. The aim of this research is to provide the robot with the expressive capabilities required to interact ...
