Roles of Robots in Human Society: Challenges and Case Studies
Kerstin Dautenhahn · 2008
My talk will discuss different possible roles of robots in human societies, focussing on studies that we carried out in the Aurora project (http://www.aurora-project.com/). Challenges identified, and lessons learnt from studying interactions between robots and children with autism will be presented in the broader context of service robotics, with a particular focus on “a robot in my house” scenario which is central to the Cogniron project.
