Alice in Bookland

摘要

This project suggests how human-robot interaction might be of service to public institutions during the pandemic crisis. Alice in Bookland aims to ensure a safe environment for children to continue their reading experiences during COVID-19. Due to the lockdown throughout the country, lots of public organizations such as libraries are having a hard time providing their resources, with limited user entrance and open hours. Here, Alice in Bookland complements the situation via providing a safe space outside the library, encouraging readers' healthy reading habits without any undue stress during the pandemic, and raising community awareness of local library resources.
