コミュニケーションロボットの振る舞いがユーザの情動に与える影響を調査するための心拍計測システムの開発

抄録

Due to the stereotype ideas and lifestyle in Japan, unbalanced household working time between males and females has been kept for a long time. In this study, we have proposed the use of biosensing to identify the emotions of infants and communication robots to assist child-care tasks. As preliminary trials, we developed a heart rate measurement system with combining a communication robot and conducted two experiments. The results of the experiment 1 show LF/HF could be an indicator to estimate infant emotions. According to the results of statistical analysis in the experiment 2, LF/HF has an increasing tendency after the cheering message by communication robots, although there are not significant differences.
