The Creative Robotics Studio seeks to explore how robotic motion affects an audience’s emotional response towards the robot itself. The team will develop an experiment to empirically measure a spectrum of emotional responses from fear or disgust to comfort or congeniality and then use those findings to develop a set of motion guidelines and tools for increasing the accuracy and efficacy of Human Robot Interactions.
