To investigate the design and use of social robots for delivering mindfulness training, we develop a teleoperation framework that enables an experienced Human Coach (HC) to conduct mindfulness training sessions virtually, by replicating their upper-body and head movements onto the Pepper robot, in real-time. Pepper’s vision is mapped onto a Head-Mounted Display (HMD) worn by the HC and a bidirectional audio pipeline is set up, enabling the HC to communicate with the participants through the robot. To evaluate the participants’ perceptions of the teleoperated Robot Coach (RC), we study the interactions between a group of participants and the RC over 5 weeks and compare these with another group of participants interacting directly with the HC. Growth modelling analysis of this longitudinal data shows that the HC ratings are consistently greater than 4 (on a scale of 1 5) for all aspects while an increase is witnessed in the RC ratings over the weeks, for the Robot Motion and Conversation dimensions. Mindfulness training delivered by both types of coaching evokes positive responses from the participants across all the sessions, with the HC rated significantly higher than the RC on Animacy, Likeability and Perceived Intelligence. Participants’ personality traits such as Conscientiousness and Neuroticism are found to influence their perception of the RC. These findings enable an understanding of the differences between the perceptions of HC and RC delivering mindfulness training, and provide insights towards the development of robot coaches for improving the psychological wellbeing of individuals.","PeriodicalId":6854,"journal":{"name":"2021 30th IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN)","volume":"7 1","pages":"939-944"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87413293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research show that the remote conversations have a difficulty on showing the presence or attention to the other interlocutors, especially in the situation where the majority of interlocutor share the same place and one or a few interlocutor participate from difference place. This paper proposed \"Parappa\", a remote video conversation system, for those unbalanced condition by utilizing both physical and virtual approaches to share the nonverbal behaviors of remotely-participating interlocutor. The proposed system is constructed with a rotatable screen which projects the life-size avatar of remote interlocutor. The rotation of the screen represents the body posture and the projected avatar show the gesture. The results of preliminary analyses of eye gaze activities and frequency of the screen rotation during conversation suggests the possibilities that proposed system enables to show the presence of remote interlocutors.","PeriodicalId":6854,"journal":{"name":"2021 30th IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN)","volume":"85 1","pages":"1060-1065"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85501477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An empirical study of how much a social robot increases the rate of valid responses in a questionnaire survey 一项关于社交机器人在问卷调查中提高有效回复率的实证研究

We conducted a field trial in a university campus based on a single-case design method that is used in applied behavior analysis. We made two conditions: One was a condition that a robot interacting with people was installed (robot condition), and another was a condition that the robot was not installed (no-robot condition). We measured once a day for eight days, each day lasting 125 minutes from 11:25 to 13:30. The robot condition and the no-robot condition were assigned alternately to each day. The robot was controlled by an operator. The results showed that the valid response rates of the robot condition were 8.9%, 3.8%, 6.1%, and 1.9%, and those of the no-robot condition were 4.9%, 3.7%, 3.1%, and 1.8%. Considering both these results and complete answer rates, we found that although a robot can attract people’s attention and increase the response rates a little and short-term, the valid response rates do not increase so much as we expect because people who are attracted by the robot are likely to quit answering the questionnaire halfway. In order to increase the valid response rates, we will need to consider a new interaction design for preventing people from quitting their answer.","PeriodicalId":6854,"journal":{"name":"2021 30th IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN)","volume":"53 1","pages":"951-956"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91328624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The overall system comprises the humanoid robot Pepper and a Kinect v2 camera for capturing human 3D joint positions. The presented kinematic model is based on analytical solutions of Pepper’s inverse kinematics and also uses the forward kinematics. The aim of the paper is to provide insights into deriving the kinematics of robotic chains for the purpose of pose matching imitation, as well as accuracy evaluation of the derived forward and inverse kinematic solutions. The solutions of the inverse kinematics provide results with a mean error of approximately 0.2° for the angle solutions of the head joints, 0.7° for the arm joints, and 4° for the torso (leg) joints. The evaluated speed lies within a range of 0.002 to 0.08 ms. These results indicate that the presented kinematic model is an effective method for translating end effector positions to joint angles for our pose imitation application in real-time or close to it. Finally, we show preliminary results of the proposed imitation system and discuss future work.","PeriodicalId":6854,"journal":{"name":"2021 30th IEEE International Conference on Robot & Human Interactive Communication (RO-MAN)","volume":"367 1","pages":"167-174"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77754315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
