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.

Anthropomorphism in Human–Robot Co-evolution
Social robotics entertains a particular relationship with anthropomorphism, which it neither sees as a cognitive error, nor as a sign of immaturity. Rather it considers that this common human tendency, which is hypothesized to have evolved because it ...
