I am my robot: the impact of robot-building and robot form on operators
As robots become more pervasive, operators will develop richer relationships with them. In a 2 (robot form: humanoid vs. car) x 2 (assembler: self vs. other) between-participants ...

Modulation of Simple Sinusoidal Patterns by a Coupled Oscillator Model for Biped Walking
— We show that a humanoid robot can step and walk using simple sinusoidal desired joint trajectories with their phase adjusted by a coupled oscillator model. We use the center of...

Reading Human Relationships from Their Interaction with an Interactive Humanoid Robot
This paper reports our novel approach to developing a social robot. Such a robot reads human relationships from their physical behavior. We have developed an interactive humanoid r...
