パーソナルロボット"PaPeRo"の開発(2) : パートナー型ロボットのインタラクションデザイン開発事例(口頭による研究発表概要)

抄録

In this paper, we introduce a process of interaction design of Personal Robot "PaPeRo". Interaction design is important for the robots can communicate with human. First of all, we created a theme music for this robot. The music defined the design of motion, lighting, timing of conversation. and also, it was expanded into theme color and color variation of this robot. After the development, we investigated user can accept the robot at their home, or not. The result was divided into two types, the people that lose interest in the robot, and the people that didn't. we consider if user can complement the behavior of the robot, they continue to be interested in the robot. In future, the designers taking part in robots like this will need to increase their domain and to cooperate with creaters in different fields.
