Ms. robot will be teaching you: Robot lecturers in four modes of automated remote instruction (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, J., & Ju, W. (2016, March). Ms. robot will be teaching you: Robot lecturers in four modes of automated remote instruction. Presented at AAAI Spring Symposium - Technical Report, Palo Alto, USA

Methods and materials are described for employing a human-shaped robot as a lecturer in automated remote instruction. Video segments from the stimuli of a 2 (participant substrate: VR or non-VR) x 2 (robot embodiment: copresent or screen) balanced be...

Ghost driver: A field study investigating the interaction between pedestrians and driverless vehicles (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rothenbucher, D., Li, J., Sirkin, D., Mok, B., & Ju, W. (2016, August). Ghost driver: A field study investigating the interaction between pedestrians and driverless vehicles. Presented at 25th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, RO-MAN 2016, New York, USA

How will pedestrians and bicyclists interact with autonomous vehicles when there is no human driver? In this paper, we outline a novel method for performing observational field experiments to investigate interactions with driverless cars. We provide...

Social robots as interactive technology agents: Supporting design with exploratory assessment (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, J. (2016, March). Social robots as interactive technology agents: Supporting design with exploratory assessment. Presented at 2016 11th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), Christchurch, New Zealand

How people respond to social robots as new interactive media is an important consideration for their design and implementation. A series of experimental studies uses exploratory assessment to evaluate three applications of social robots: pedagogical...

Social robots for automated remote instruction (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, J., & Ju, W. (2016, March). Social robots for automated remote instruction. Presented at 2016 11th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), Christchurch, New Zealand

Instructional video content is being created in many different languages. A robot is a generic interface that can deliver translated lecture content in a person's space. In an exploratory study, 40 participants viewed a lecture delivered by a robot l... Read More about Social robots for automated remote instruction.

From Trolley to Autonomous Vehicle: Perceptions of Responsibility and Moral Norms in Traffic Accidents with Self-Driving Cars (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, J., Zhao, X., Cho, M., Ju, W., & Malle, B. F. (2016, April). From Trolley to Autonomous Vehicle: Perceptions of Responsibility and Moral Norms in Traffic Accidents with Self-Driving Cars. Presented at SAE 2016 World Congress and Exhibition, Detroit, MI, USA

Autonomous vehicles represent a new class of transportation that may be qualitatively different from existing cars. Two online experiments assessed lay perceptions of moral norms and responsibility for traffic accidents involving autonomous vehicles....
