Abstract

Since 1998 robots have been used as social mediators that interact with autistic children. In this paper, we use music as a mediator between a robot and an autistic child. The robot plays a music interaction game by using a vibraphone, what might be seen as a kind of music therapy. The purpose of this work was to provide a robot and other multi-media interaction equipment as an interactive tool for professionals to reach the attention of their autistic pupils. The equipment has been used in a special care school in Taiwan. In this paper we focus on the technical aspects of this environment. We also briefly report first experiences with this type of multi-media environment sessions in the school.

用颤音琴和人形机器人演奏音乐作为自闭症儿童的互动训练

自1998年以来，机器人一直被用作与自闭症儿童互动的社会中介。在这篇论文中，我们使用音乐作为机器人和自闭症儿童之间的媒介。机器人通过使用电颤琴玩音乐互动游戏，这可能被视为一种音乐疗法。这项工作的目的是提供一个机器人和其他多媒体互动设备，作为专业人士的互动工具，以引起自闭症学生的注意。该设备已在台湾的一所特殊护理学校使用。在本文中，我们将重点讨论这种环境的技术方面。我们还简要地报告了在学校里第一次使用这种多媒体环境课程的经历。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Automation and Smart Technology (AUSMT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to publishing research papers in the fields of automation and smart technology. Currently, the journal is abstracted in Scopus, INSPEC and DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals). The research areas of the journal include but are not limited to the fields of mechatronics, automation, ambient Intelligence, sensor networks, human-computer interfaces, and robotics. These technologies should be developed with the major purpose to increase the quality of life as well as to work towards environmental, economic and social sustainability for future generations. AUSMT endeavors to provide a worldwide forum for the dynamic exchange of ideas and findings from research of different disciplines from around the world. Also, AUSMT actively seeks to encourage interaction and cooperation between academia and industry along the fields of automation and smart technology. For the aforementioned purposes, AUSMT maps out 5 areas of interests. Each of them represents a pillar for better future life: - Intelligent Automation Technology. - Ambient Intelligence, Context Awareness, and Sensor Networks. - Human-Computer Interface. - Optomechatronic Modules and Systems. - Robotics, Intelligent Devices and Systems.
