From Social Gaze to Indirect Speech Constructions: How to Induce the Impression That Your Companion Robot Is a Conscious Creature
We implemented different modes of social gaze behavior in our companion robot, F-2, to evaluate the impression of the gaze behaviors on humans in three symmetric communicative situations: (a) the robot telling a story, (b) the person telling a story to the robot, and (c) both parties communicating a...
