Kansei Behavior of Robots Following Instruction of Human
Keywords:
Kansei behavior, Kansei transfer function, Instruction of humanAbstract
When coexisting with humans and support them, robots need to be instructed to move by humans without burden, and the motion should not to instigate anxiety but to be accepted to human psychology. To realize Kansei behavior of robots following instruction of human, the concept of “Kansei transfer function”, which can add softness and smoothness to robots, is explained, and the effectiveness of its applications to human- robot interfaces is confirmed from psychological aspects.
