当在“野生”或自然环境中考虑儿童机器人交互(CRI)时,许多想法都会浮现在脑海中,例如家庭或学校,其中涉及带有自主机器人设备的混乱环境以及与它们自由交互的人。然而,肯定有一定程度的“野生”,不同的实验设置可以有不同程度的控制。这将是有帮助的,有一个共同的框架来解释和确定许多不同的影响因素或控制水平周围CRI实验。有一个框架,以帮助对CRI研究的标准化评估将有利于研究人员希望确定或计划在CRI实验中存在的不同方面。本文提出了一个简单的分类法,以表征在CRI的“野性”因素在两个主要方面(参与者和机器人),可以影响这些研究的总体结果。这种分类法的使用说明其应用程序,目前CRI的研究。具体来说,我们使用它来反思我们在十年内进行的六项CRI试验。从这些研究的分类,我们的工作到目前为止的概述和新的研究视角被确定。分类法的应用也验证了审查其他CRI研究的选择。
When thinking about Child-Robot Interaction (CRI) in the ‘wild’ or natural settings, many ideas come to mind, such as a home or a school that involve chaotic settings with autonomous robotic devices and people that are freely interacting with them. However, there certainly are degrees of ‘wild’, and different experimental settings can have varying levels of control in place. It would be helpful to have a common framework to interpret and identify the many different influencing factors or levels of control surrounding CRI experimentation. Having a framework to help towards standardizing evaluation of CRI studies would benefit researchers wishing to identify or plan the varying dimensions present in CRI experimentation. This paper presents a simple taxonomy to characterize the ‘wildness’ factors in CRI over two main dimensions (Participant and Robotic) that can effect the overall outcome of such studies. The use of this taxonomy is illustrated by its application to current CRI research. Specifically, we use it in reflection to rate six of our CRI trials that have been conducted over a ten year period. From the classification of these studies, a general view of our work so far is outlined and new research perspectives are identified. The application of the taxonomy is also validated by reviewing a selection of other CRI studies.
