Robot self-preservation and adaptation to user preferences in game play : a preliminary study
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011)It is expected that in a near future, personal robots will be endowed with enough autonomy to function and live in an individual's home. This is while commercial robots are designed with default configuration and factory ... -
Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy Versus Open Radical Cystectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Perioperative, Oncological, and Quality of Life Outcomes Using Randomized Controlled Trials
(2023-09-15)Context: Differences in recovery, oncological, and quality of life (QoL) outcomes between open radical cystectomy (ORC) and robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for patients with bladder cancer are unclear. Objective: ... -
Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy with Orthotopic Neobladder Reconstruction: Techniques and Functional Outcomes in Males
(2023-11-29)Background: Little is known regarding functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and intracorporeal neobladder (ICNB) reconstruction. Objective: To report on urinary continence (UC) and erectile ... -
Robot-Mediated Interviews - How Effective Is a Humanoid Robot as a Tool for Interviewing Young Children?
(2013-03-22)Robots have been used in a variety of education, therapy or entertainment contexts. This paper introduces the novel application of using humanoid robots for robot-mediated interviews. An experimental study examines how ... -
Robot-mediated interviews : Does a robotic interviewer impact question difficulty and information recovery?
(IOS Press, 2013)Our previous research has shown that children respond to a robotic interviewer very similar compared to a human interviewer, pointing towards the prospect of using robot-mediated interviews in situations where human ... -
Robot-Mediated Interviews with Children : What do potential users think?
(Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour, 2014-04-04)When police officers are conducting interviews with children, some of the disclosures can be quite shocking. This can make it difficult for an officer to maintain their composure without subtly indicating their shock to ... -
Robot-Mediated Interviews with Children: What do potential users think?
(2017-03-30)To date research investigating the potential of Robot-Mediated Interviews (RMI) has focused on establishing how children respond to robots in an interview scenario. In order to test if an RMI approach would work in a real ... -
Robot-mediated interviews: : Do robots possess advantages over human interviewers when talking to children with special needs?
(Springer Nature, 2013-12)Children that have a disability are up to four times more likely to be a victim of abuse than typically developing children. However, the number of cases that result in prosecution is relatively low. One of the factors ... -
Robot-Mediated interviews: A field trial with a potential real-world user
(2020-05-20)In recent years the possibility of using humanoid robots to perform interviews with children has been explored in a number of studies. This paper details a study in which a potential real-world user trialled a Robot-Mediated ... -

Robot-Mediated Interviews: a Robotic Intermediary for Facilitating Communication with Children
(2015-08-19)Robots have been used in a variety of education, therapy or entertainment contexts. This thesis introduces the novel application of using humanoid robots for Robot-Mediated Interviews (RMIs). In the initial stages of this ... -
Robot-mediated joint attention in children with autism : A case study in robot-human interaction
(2004)Interactive robots are used increasingly not only in entertainment and service robotics, but also in rehabilitation, therapy and education. The work presented in this paper is part of the Aurora project, rooted in assistive ... -
Robotic etiquette : structured interaction in humans and robots
(University of Reading, 2000)Visual nonverbal behaviour plays a significant role in allowing humans to structure their interactions meaningfully, thus facilitating communication between individuals. Such behaviour may be exploited in the design of ... -
Robotic etiquette: results from user studies involving a fetch and carry task
(ACM Press, 2007)This paper presents results, outcomes and conclusions from a series of Human Robot Interaction (HRI) trials which investigated how a robot should approach a human in a fetch and carry task. Two pilot trials were carried ... -
Robotic relative motion reproduction for air to air refuelling simulation
(2013)Hybrid testing involves the testing of physical subassemblies in a real-time simulation, coupled to numerical simulations of complete systems and their related environmental conditions. It offers the ability to test the ... -
Robotic versus open radical cystectomy for bladder cancer in adults
(2019-04-24)Background It has been suggested that in comparison with open radical cystectomy, robotic-assisted radical cystectomy results in less blood loss, shorter convalescence, and fewer complications with equivalent short-term ...
