Come un gioco a carte può aiutare a capirci meglio con i robot?
The goal of this project is to give an overview on how the RBCS and CONTACT research units of IIT design studies and experiments on human-robot interaction. You’ll get the chance to play a card game with one of our iCub robots and see how it reacts to your moves. We will explain how we use this type of games to better understand how humans react to the robot’s behaviour and how to enable robots to learn. We will show how we take advantage of what we understand to make the interaction with the iCub more and more natural.
Robotics Brain and Cognitive Science (RBCS) and COgNitive Architecture for Collaborative Technologies (CONTACT) units of IIT.
