A new method to generate familiar behavior of a robot is proposed and verified. Familiar behavior of a robot is important under human-robot symbiosis in order to make a user feel comfortable and to avoid putting stress on a user. The method described is based upon a hypothesis that passive reactions produce familiar and comfortable impression in human beings. The results of psychological experiments verifies the validity of the method. A stuffed robot is made for the experiments. Impressions produced by the behaviors of the robot are analyzed quantitatively using the semantic differential method. Utilizing the robot behavior for generation familiarity will facilitate human-robot symbiosis.
