Research Abstract |
Based on the interaction modalities that are enabled by humanoid robots, this research project developed telerobotic media that are videoconferencing systems equipped with the enhanced capability of supporting social telepresence. Three devices have been developed to enhance the capability: the movable camera that can simulate the movement of a point of view, the movable display that can simulate the changes of an interpersonal distance, and the robot hand that can enable shaking hands remotely.
