My PhD aims to determine what makes a digital robotic or alien character uncanny through an in depth study of animation and speech. The intention is to make a development toolkit to aid the process of developing these digital uncanny others. The literature review will explore the vast quantity of relevant material within the fields of HCI, HRI and game theory. The research study will be approached using a range of well developed research methods used within HCI, HRI and game theory. These will include industry interviews and player experience surveys, the development of game prototypes analysed using qualitative data collection and Reflective Thematic Analysis, and the subsequent development of a toolkit to be tested in a workshop environment with game developers. This research and toolkit aims to be a useful asset to the character development process, whilst benefiting the relationship between the development process and player experience.

我的博士旨在通过深入研究动画和语音来确定是什么使数字机器人或外星人角色变得不可思议。目的是制作开发工具包，以帮助开发这些数字怪异的其他工具包。文献综述将探讨HCI，HRI和游戏理论领域内的大量相关材料。研究研究将使用HCI，HRI和游戏理论中使用的一系列良好发展的研究方法进行研究。这些将包括行业访谈和玩家体验调查，使用定性数据收集和反思性主题分析分析的游戏原型的开发以及随后开发与游戏开发人员在研讨会环境中测试的工具包。这项研究和工具包的目的是成为角色开发过程的有用资产，同时使开发过程与玩家体验之间的关系受益。
