HRI caught on film 2

摘要

Following the great success of the first video session at the HRI2007 conference (Bartneck & Kanda, 2007), the Human Robot Interaction 2008 conference hosted the second video session, in which movies of interesting, important, illustrative, or humorous HRI research moments were shown. Robots and humans do not always behave as expected and the results can be entertaining and even enlightening -- therefore instances of failures have also been considered in the video session. Besides the importance of the lessons learned and the novelty of the situation, the videos have also an entertaining value. The video session had the character of a design competition.
