Philosophy of Cognitive Robotics

在“意识与感质”的哲学概念分析上，我们确立了它们的出现可以被自然地理解的立场，这一结果以出版《意识与感质之谜》（秀和道，2008）的形式出现。在真实环境下认知功能的人工实现方面，我们成功制作了一个比单纯反射具有更高水平联合注意的机器人，并于2010年9月在里斯本举行的ECCS’10欧洲复杂系统会议上，作为一个具有第一阶段意向代理的机器人，展示了这一实验结果。

On philosophical concept-analysis of "consciousness and qualia", we established the position that their emergence can be naturalistically understood, and this result took a form of publication of the book, The Enigma of Consciousness and Qualia (Showa-do, 2008). On artificial realizations of cognitive functions in the real circumstance, we successfully made a robot which can do a higher level of joint attention than mere reflex, and presented this experimental result at the conference of The ECCS' 10 European Conference on Complex Systems in Lisbon on September 2010, as a robot with a first stage of intentional agency.
