Social Robots and Social Interaction

2014
I study the implications of the use of social robotics to our concepts of social interaction in everyday usage and in philosophical theories of social action. If people sometimes conceive their activities with robots as cases of social interaction even though they do not attribute to robots all the capacities that philosophers take to be necessary ...

Socializing robots: constructing robotic sociality in the design and use of the assistive robot PARO

AI & SOCIETY, 2015
The goal of introducing robots into everyday use has led to their reconceptualization as social technologies, for which interacting with people is a fundamental and necessary function. Robot sociality in this context is generally defined as a set of individual properties of the artifact, such as a human-like appearance or the ability to read social ...

Institutional Robotics

International Journal of Social Robotics, 2015
The way human beings engage with material things in our environment is experiencing rapid modification. Human and non-human, natural and artificial creatures are on the verge of building unprecedented relations of sociability. This paper takes this process as a horizon for Social Robotics, advancing a new approach to coordinate systems of multiple ...

Robot Social Intelligence

2012
Robots are pervading human society today at an ever-accelerating rate, but in order to actualize their profound potential impact, robots will need cognitive capabilities that support the necessary social intelligence required to fluently engage with people and other robots. People are social agents and robots must develop sufficient social intelligence

The influence of robot design on acceptance of social robots

2017 14th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2017
Human-robot interaction (HRI) is a rapidly growing area of research and the important factors of the relationship between robots and the people who use them are still being determined. In the present research, we tried to ascertain if robot appearance influenced people's preference for, interest in, and communication with particular robots. To this aim,

Nudging by Social Robots

2020
In this paper, I consider whether social robots can nudge us in standard ways, i.e., by influencing choice/behavior in predictable ways, and the ethical issues attached to that. I then argue that social robots can also nudge us in non-standard ways, by influencing in predictable ways cognitive and affective states as opposed to simple choice/behavior ...

Social Robots and Sentimentality

2014
In this paper I discuss the objection that we are deplorably sentimental, i.e., we misrepresent the world in order to indulge in certain feelings, whenever we feel affection and act in an affectionate way towards certain social robots. I will focus my discussion on documented behaviors typically of elderly people towards pet robots such as Paro.

Robots are Always Social

Extended Abstracts of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2019
Physical movement is a dominant element in robot behavior. We evaluate if robotic movements are automatically interpreted as social cues, even if the robot has no social role. 24 participants performed the Implicit Associations Test, classifying robotic gestures into direction categories ("to-front" or "to-back") and words into social categories ...
