| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, I developed psychological threat reduction method and user friendly robots. First, I evaluated the appearance of a small robot (robot avatar) mounted on a mobile robot using the augmented reality (AR). Then I asked the participants to evaluate visibility, friendliness and reliability of the robot avatar. Combination of various body color, eye color and three kinds of robot size were prepared for comparison. As a result, the preferred color combination was black body with yellow eyes, and the smallest robot was most preferred. Finally, I developed preliminary announcement methods for a daily-life-support robot using a robot avatar, and conducted evaluation experiments.
