Computational Awareness in a Tactile-Responsive Humanoid Robot Comedian

摘要

In the future, humans will have robot friends that will need to have social and computational awareness for intuitive human-robot interactions. In this paper, we demonstrate a method for incorporating computational awareness in a humanoid robot comedian scenario that uses tactile feedback to respond to the audience. Our findings indicate that incorporating computational awareness in a humanoid robot must also take into account the users' ability to detect responsiveness in a robot.
