An autonomous service robot operates in the users' own environment, performing independent tasks to reach a user's goals. Interaction models should apply to users that are not computer experts, and must consider both normal and unexpected situations.
- What are the conditions for humans' acceptance of a service robot in their immediate physical environment?
- How can "natural" interaction with a robot be designed, e.g. in terms of suitable channels and modes for communication? What metaphors might underly the design?
- How can the robot's perception, competence, and awareness of the world be represented in a form accessible to the user?
- How can the interaction design ensure safety, by allowing users to easily stop the robot or change its instructions?
