本文描述了我们的远程协作项目，涉及到日本和美国大学生虚拟卡哇伊机器人的设计和实现，以及对机器人的情感评估。由于新冠肺炎的流行，我们不得不将计划中的7周合作从面对面改为虚拟，从而导致我们合作的目标产品从真实机器人变为虚拟机器人。根据我们2021年的新计划，学生们设计了虚拟空间中的机器人，旨在让每个机器人从人类身上引发不同的脑电(EEG)和/或心率(HR)反应。根据每个学生团队为同伴机器人创作的角色和场景，每个学生设计了四个机器人，目标是其中一个机器人最卡哇伊，这是一个日语形容词，代表可爱和可爱，其他机器人由于形状和颜色的不同而不那么卡哇伊。机器人的情感评价是通过生物信号(脑电和心率)和卡瓦伊评分进行的。
This paper describes our remote collaboration project related to the design and implementation of virtual kawaii robots by Japanese and American university students, and affective evaluation of the robots. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we had to change our planned 7-week collaboration from in-person to virtual with a resultant change in the target product of our collaboration from real robots to virtual robots. Based on our new plan for 2021, students designed robots in virtual spaces aiming that each robot elicited a different Electroencephalogram (EEG) and/or Heart Rate (HR) reaction from humans. Based on the persona and scenario for the companion robot authored by each student team, each student designed four robots with the goal that one robot would be most kawaii, a Japanese adjective representing cute and adorable, and others would be less kawaii due to variations in shapes and colors. The affective evaluation of robots was performed both by biological signals (EEG and HR) and by kawaii rating.
