| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
To conduct the theoretical study, I gave several presentations on ethics, value-sensitive design in order to collect feedbacks from the public as well as adademia. As for the achievements in the first year, I gave presentations under workshops at IEEE RO-MAN 2022, IEEE IROS 2022, JURIX 2022, HKU LawTech Talk respectively, and an interactive lecture at National Taiwan University. The IRB application for conducting robot experiemnts has been accepted by Tohoku University. Later, I am going to write a book chapter by referring people's feedbacks. My research conlcusion of the first theoratical study will be published at The Cambridge Handbook on the Law, Policy, and Regulations for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI).

Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
The two-and-half-year project includes three main parts as theoretical study, affective computing and privacy by design, informed consent in HRI. The first part theoretical study has been successfully realized. The research output is submitting as a book chapter to the Cambridge Handbook on the Law, Policy, and Regulations for Human-Robot Interaction (HRI).
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
How to conduct empirical approach into the study of robot governance based on value-sensitive design is the core to the project. After the theoretical study, I will continue to expand my investigation from value-sensitive design theory into human-robot interaction experiments. In affective computing and privacy by design, I bought a social communication robot LOVOT for the study “The assessment of the impact on users’ privacy posed by the social robots from a human centered perspective”. The assessment got the IRB approval from Graduate School of Engineering, Tohoku University (Number: 22A-26). Except to HRI experiments, I will invite researchers from University of Oslo to have an international collaboration on this topic.

| Causes of Carryover |
I will continue to expand my investigation from value-sensitive design theory into human-robot interaction experiments. Budgets will be proper used in next fiscal year.
