Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zaga, C., De Vries, R. A., Li, J., Truong, K. P., & Evers, V. (2017, May). A simple nod of the head: The effect of minimal robot movements on children's perception of a low-anthropomorphic robot. Presented at CHI conference on human factors in computing systems, Denver, Colorado, USA

In this note, we present minimal robot movements for robotic technology for children. Two types of minimal gaze movements were designed: social-gaze movements to communicate social engagement and deictic-gaze movements to communicate task-related ref...

Dialogue Design for a Robot-Based Face-Mirroring Game to Engage Autistic Children with Emotional Expressions (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chevalier, P., Li, J. J., Ainger, E., Alcorn, A. M., Babovic, S., Charisi, V., Petrovic, S., Schadenberg, B. R., Pellicano, E., & Evers, V. (2017, November). Dialogue Design for a Robot-Based Face-Mirroring Game to Engage Autistic Children with Emotional Expressions. Presented at ICSR 2017, Tsukuba, Japan

We present design strategies for Human Robot Interaction for school-aged autistic children with limited receptive language. Applying these strategies to the DE-ENIGMA project (large EU project addressing emotion recognition in autistic children) supp...

Children's views on identification and intention communication of self-driving vehicles (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Charisi, V., Habibovic, A., Andersson, J., Li, J., & Evers, V. (2017, June). Children's views on identification and intention communication of self-driving vehicles. Presented at Conference on Interaction Design and Children, Stanford, California

One of the major reasons behind traffic accidents is misinterpretation among road users. Self-driving vehicles are expected to reduce these accidents, given that they are designed with all road users in mind. Recently, research on the design of vehic...
