Collaborative AI to approach or to accompany people using social robots will be a fundamental robotics field in the near future. If we desire to share and to collaborate with social robots during the development of our daily task, social robots should be able to develop Collaborative AI task, such us accompanying or approaching people. In this article, we will present the robot-people accompaniment and approaching missions through the four levels of abstractions of Collaborative AI systems and describe the main Collaborative AI functionalities that are needed for these missions. We will also show the system that we have developed for accompany one or two pedestrians and approaching on person by a robot in an urban space.
