| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
We have designed a robot which can change appearance easily by changing it's face etc... and we have tested the effect of the different design: color, shape etc... on users.
The robot uses our collaborator ultra-sonic actuators as specified in the plan, instead of 3D printed material we have used polystyrene painted material for the sake of the weight.
We have also tested our robots in different condition to investigate if it is possible to use them in uncontrolled environment and to predict users impressions.
