概要(Abstract) |
A variety of robots have been developed in a different use case in our daily life. In the field of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), considering human comfort design is very important when the person meets real autonomous objects for the first time. In this presentation, the concept of Comfort Intelligence for Human-Robot Interaction will introduce through the example situation in an autonomous vehicle's research. The concept of comfort intelligence includes anxiety (negative state) to the entertainments (positive state) in the real situation of using autonomous vehicles with passengers feeling. In this research field, anxiety reduction is mainly targeted. The anxiety comes from a variety of stress factors. In the field of vehicles, we defined stress in autonomous vehicles as Autonomous Vehicle Stress (AVS) to estimate, classify and consider reduction methods for reducing anxiety in autonomous vehicles. Moreover, anxiety is not only about stress but also have to consider motion sickness. Since many people release from driving, it is difficult to understand vehicles behaviour. In addition, people tend to spend more time on entertainments that will increase car sickness more often. Furthermore, many car accessory companies tend to develop HUD by using VR or AR for better navigation in the future. These trends, however, also increase VR sickness. In our ideas, there will be new motion sickness called Autonomous Vehicle Motion Sickness (AVMS) that is mixed with car sickness and VR sickness in the future autonomous vehicle environment. Therefore, in this presentation, explain the importance of considering comfort intelligence (CI) by looking at previous researches on anxiety, as well as discussing stress and motion sickness perspective. |
