The Potential of Telepresence Robots for Intergroup Contact [PDF]
Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Computer-Human Interaction Research and Applications, 2020 We propose the use of telepresence robots as a medium for intergroup contact that aims at reducing prejudice between groups in conflict. We argue for robots as a midpoint between online communication and a face-to-face meeting, combining the flexibility of the virtual world and the depth of physical interactions.
