A proposal of a graduate class for the human robot interaction area

摘要

The most recent European and American Roadmaps for robotics point out the role that robotics will play in people's lives in the coming years, constituting an important tool to support everyday life. The main change is associated with a greater proximity and interactivity of robots with people, influencing their lives, such as unmanned vehicles, personal robotics, assistive robotics, etc. Certainly, this scenario, in which robots will be ubiquitous, will require that many of the technological problems to be addressed and most of the challenges are associated with a growing field of Robotics known as Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). Associated with this challenge, HRI classes have been created around the world to to prepare qualified personal in this area and disseminate this theme. In this article, with the goal of motivating the robotics community in disseminating this subject, a proposal of a graduate class: “Human Robot Interaction Principles” is presented, describing other similar initiatives in the world, the approach adopted, the means used, and finally, the results achieved.
