Notes de l'éditeur
- Introduce yourself, supervisor, lab State title of talk Note that this is PhD research
- General Overview
- Overview of Introduction
- Brief definition of affective touch Interested in... - display, recognition, influence of affective touch - how affective touch contributes to companionship - application of affective touch in social human-robot interaction
- Simply iterate through points on slide
- Overview of Background
- Draw from seemingly disparate research areas Will discuss SIR + Affect then Touch + HAI
- SIR is HRI where social interaction plays a key role unlike conventional HRI (teleoperation) Affect display is important aspect of social interaction Affect display is the external manifestation of internal emotional state Human affect display studies concentrate on visual and auditory modalities: facial expression, speech prosody SIR has followed in-kind
- Touch has seen much less attention Touch is unique: - skin is largest sense organ & first to develop - major role in early development - touch is proximal, requiring direct physical contact Reiterate affective touch definition Problems with general studies of touch: - gender, social status, familiarity, culture Draw inspiration from HAI: - less loaded - wealth of non-verbal communication - human-animal bond
- Filtered through the various research areas, several projects overlap with Haptic Creature Social robots combining touch interaction + animal-like form
- Primary differentiation is strong concentration on touch modaltiy Full-body touch sensing Affect display does not use facial expression or speech prosody Animal-like form but more amorphous
- Overview of Haptic Creature
- (Sub-)Overview.
- Status: complete Deployed in related user study Five emotional responses: playing dead, asleep, content, happy, upset Ten interactions: shake, leave alone, rub ears, pet (gentle, vigorous), poke, pinch, hug, tickle, rest hand atop Results fed into design of automated version
- Status: in development. Briefly describe image. Rapid testing of software, hardware, interaction techniques. Obviate need for human control. Rudimentary initial implementation. Improve into robust platform.
- Simply iterate through points on slide
- Briefly describe diagram. Example using “gentle stroke” interaction and “pleasured” response.
- Physical sensing (actuating) hardware. Programmatic aspects to read (set) sensors (actuator) data. Little/no data interpretation. Example: FSR whose value changes based on pressure (setting the position of a motor).
- Manage variety of sensor data. Build cohesive view. Higher-order model of input data. Example: array of FSRs, when monitored, can determine speed, direction, intensity of stoke.
- Overview of User Studies
- Method: participants presented with WOZ prototype; Asked to interact with it; Measured their reaction to it Goal: preliminary justification of examining animal-like behaviors in haptic communication
- Focus: ensure platform is performing as expected. Low-level: correctly contact or motion of a stroke. High-level: correctly identify and render emotional response. Method: series of studies to test various functions of platform. Ex: correctness of input sensors, output actuators. Ex: rendered responses clear to users. Goal: validate platform implementation and execution. Models of (platform/user) emotional behavior will be determined.
- Focus: implications of affective touch on connectedness. Emphasis on HAI. Interested less on way interactions occur, more on their effects. Method: participants interact with device over extended periods. Goal: deeper understanding touch plays in connectedness. Quantifiable measures for connectedness, patterns for communication.
- Overview of Conclusion
