Characteristics of social artificial agents:
- social presence –> interactive potential
- Sentience –> Intentionally / motivation / Empathy / Cognition / intelligence /experience emotion
- Agency –> sense the environment / self control / decision making.
- Embodiment –> material presence / physical affordances / appearance / likeness
- Purpose and functions –> assistive / educational / Social / Hospitality / Health / Entertainment
Key factors that need to be considered in the design
process of building social artificial agents
- Agents design –> embodiment / features
- User factors –> audience demographics / interaction goal / environment
- Interaction setting –> perceived sentience, realism, agency, social presence,
3 soorten robots:
- Human-robot task driven control and supervision
- Cobots (collaborative robots) –> task driven interaction, surgical, engineering
- Social robots
Robots application:
- Healthcare
- Education
- Hospitality, service and enterainment
SMILE model
2x participatory mediations
High participatory mediation –> actively discuss social media topics
Low participatory mediation –> cognitive/affective structures without interaction
