摘要
本文介绍了儿童与早期机器人原型的互动分析,该原型正在设计用于早期学习中心的部署。23名2-6岁的儿童与原型互动,原型由一对嵌在平面和模糊人形形式中的平板组成。我们使用了《绿野仙踪》(Wizard of Oz)的技术来控制一个合成的声音,这个声音可以传递预先定义好的语句和问题,而平板电脑则安装在一个头部上,可以显示动画眼睛。为了确定孩子们对机器人的行为和能力的一些期望,并观察他们与说话和最低动画人工代理互动的策略,孩子们与机器人和成人实验者的互动被录像和分析。我们发现孩子们的反应、期望和策略(从他们的行为中可以看出)有着惊人的广度,而且他们对机器人偶尔出现的尴尬行为也有明显的容忍度。
Children's Expectations and Strategies in Interacting with a Wizard of Oz Robot
This paper presents an analysis of children's interactions with an early prototype of a robot that is being designed for deployment in early learning centres. 23 children aged 2-6 interacted with the prototype, consisting of a pair of tablets embedded in a flat and vaguely humanoid form. We used a Wizard of Oz (WoZ) technique to control a synthesized voice that delivered predefined statements and questions, and a tablet mounted as a head that displayed animated eyes. The children's interactions with the robot and with the adult experimenter were video recorded and analysed in order to identify some of the children's expectations of the robot's behaviour and capabilities, and to observe their strategies for interacting with a speaking and minimally animated artificial agent. We found a surprising breadth in children's reactions, expectations and strategies (as evidenced by their behaviour) and a noteworthy tolerance for the robot's occasionally awkward behaviour.
