The effects of design choices on human-robot interactions in children and adults
Abstract: This chapter seeks to promote a richer understanding of design choices in the development of effective human-robot interactions. Social robots often have human-like qualities, including appearance, behavior, and intelligence. These features elicit social responses from humans that provide distinctive ways to examine how humans interact with robots. Social robots consist of strong social components that enable humans to share knowledge, ideas, and develop “peer-like” relationships. The approach described in this chapter is user-centered and employs social schemas: mental models that humans have of the world.
