Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-cultural study on human-robot greeting interaction: acceptance and discomfort by Egyptians and Japanese
Gabriele Trovato,Massimiliano Zecca,Salvatore Sessa,Lorenzo Jamone,Jaap Ham,Kenji Hashimoto,Atsuo Takanishi +6 more
TL;DR: Experimental evidence is provided which supports the idea that humans may accept more easily a robot that can adapt to their specific culture and confirms the importance of the localisation of a robot in order to improve human acceptance during social human-robot interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emotional affordances for human-robot interaction
Jordi Vallverdú,Gabriele Trovato +1 more
TL;DR: This project provides robotic experts with a unified taxonomy of human emotional affordances, useful for the improvement of HRI projects and makes possible in next research steps to define processing modules as well as to elicit visual display outputs (expressing emotions).
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a colon endoscope robot that adjusts its locomotion through the use of reinforcement learning
Gabriele Trovato,M. Shikanai,Genya Ukawa,J. Kinoshita,N. Murai,Jaewoo Lee,Hiroyuki Ishii,Atsuo Takanishi,Kazuo Tanoue,Satoshi Ieiri,Kozo Konishi,Makoto Hashizume +11 more
TL;DR: This self-propelled robotic endoscope has potential as an alternative to current fibre optic colonoscopy examination methods, especially with the addition of new sensors under development.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Sound or Silence: Investigating the Influence of Robot Noise on Proxemics
Gabriele Trovato,Renato Paredes,Javier Balvin,Francisco Cuellar,Nicolai Bæk Thomsen,Søren Bech,Zheng-Hua Tan +6 more
TL;DR: An interaction study in which an uncomfortable noise from a robot was tested in order to measure the effect on proxemics, and the effectiveness of the mask in avoiding the negative effect of the noise is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
She’s Electric—The Influence of Body Proportions on Perceived Gender of Robots across Cultures
TL;DR: A cross-cultural study involving more than 150 participants to investigate the perception of gender in robot design by manipulating body proportions, focusing specifically on the contrast between two extremely different cultures: Peruvian and Japanese.
