Abstract
Abstract
The focus of robotics research is shifting from industrial robots to robots working in daily situations and one of the most important issues is to develop autonomous social robots capable to interact with and live together with humans, i.e., symbiotic robots with humans. The aim of this workshop is to introduce research activities in “Symbiotic Human-Robot Interaction,” and discuss the future challenges in this research area.
One of the goals of this research area is providing communication support for people, such as companion robots for elderly people who need psychological support as much as physical support. For this aim, various humanoids, including android robots, have been studied for a few decades, and full-scale social implementations are about to begin.
In this workshop, organizers will demonstrate one of our androids, the world-famous, state-of-the art communication robots and bring you a brainstorming workshop. We will discuss the future of everyday robots, key technologies to make them able to be true companions living together with us.
