A Novel Wire-driven 3D Eyebrow Design for Communication with Humanoid Robot iCub

IROS 2022poster

The purpose of this research is to contribute to social communication between humans and robots in scenes that have been considered difficult due to the limited facial expression capabilities of robots. In order to provide more detailed facial expressions, we designed a novel wire-driven 3D eyebrow…

Expectations Vs. Reality: Unreliability and Transparency in a Treasure Hunt Game With Icub

RA-L 2021

Trust is essential in human-robot interactions, and in times where machines are yet to be fully reliable, it is important to study how robotic hardware faults can affect the human counterpart. This experiment builds on a previous research that studied trust changes in a game-like scenario with the h

Audiovisual cognitive architecture for autonomous learning of face localisation by a Humanoid Robot

ICRA 2020poster

Newborn infants are naturally attracted to human faces, a crucial source of information for social interaction. In robotics, acquisition of such information is crucial and social robots should also learn to exhibit such social skill. Deep learning algorithms are valid candidates to address the probl…

Trust and Social Engineering in Human Robot Interaction: Will a Robot Make You Disclose Sensitive Information, Conform to Its Recommendations or Gamble?

RA-L 2018

Robots such as information security and overtrust in them are gaining increasing relevance. This research aims at giving an insight into how trust toward robots could be exploited for the purpose of social engineering. Drawing on Mitnick's model, a well-known social engineering framework, an interac

Robot reading human gaze: Why eye tracking is better than head tracking for human-robot collaboration

IROS 2016poster

Robots are at the position to become our everyday companions in the near future. Still, many hurdles need to be cleared to achieve this goal. One of them is the fact that robots are still not able to perceive some important communication cues naturally used by humans, e.g. gaze. In the recent past,…
