The Role of Autonomy and Interaction Type on Spatial Comfort in an HRI Scenario
(University of Hertfordshire, 2008)
This extended abstract presents findings from a live HRI study carried out in the UH robot house. The participants (33 in total) were approached by a robot for 3 different interaction types and the amount of control the ...
Avoiding the uncanny valley : robot appearance, personality and consistency of behavior in an attention-seeking home scenario for a robot companion
(2008)
This article presents the results of video-based Human Robot Interaction (HRI) trials which investigated people’s perceptions of different robot appearances and associated attention-seeking features and behaviors displayed ...
Human approach distances to a mechanical-looking robot with different robot voice styles
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
Findings are presented from a Human Robot Interaction (HRI) Demonstration Trial where attendees approached a stationary mechanical looking robot to a comfortable distance. Instructions were given to participants by the ...
Evaluating extrovert and introvert behaviour of a domestic robot : a video study
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)
Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) research is here presented into social robots that have to be able to interact with inexperienced users. In the design of these robots many research findings of human-human interaction and ...
Human to robot demonstrations of routine home tasks: exploring the role of the robot's feedback
(2008)
In this paper, we explore some conceptual issues, relevant for the design of robotic systems aimed at interacting with humans in domestic environments. More specifically, we study the role of the robot's feedback (positive ...
A personalized robot companion - The role of individual differences on spatial preferences in HRI scenarios
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007)
This study investigated the relationship between individual differences and proxemic behaviour in an HRI setting involving a robot approaching a person. In total 33 participants took part in three different scenarios; ...
Living with Robots: Investigating the Habituation Effect in Participants' Preferences During a Longitudinal Human-Robot Interaction Study
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007)
Exploring the Design Space of Robot Appearance and Behavior in an Attention-Seeking Living Room Scenario for a Robot Companion
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007)
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 ...
Comparing human robot interaction scenarios using live and video based methods: towards a novel methodological approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2006)
This paper presents results of a pilot study that investigated whether people’s perceptions from live and video HRI trials were comparable. Subjects participated in a live HRI trial and videotaped HRI trials in which the ...
