Kanda, Takayuki.

Human-robot interaction in social robotics / Takayuki Kanda and Hiroshi Ishiguro. - Boca Raton, FL : CRC Press, c2013. - xix, 351 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Kanda, a researcher at a Kyoto intelligent and robotics and communication company, and Ishiguro (adaptive machine systems, Osaka U.) explore the new field of designing robots to interact with humans in the environment. They cover the network robot approach to interactions, observing people's reaction in field tests, users' attitude and expectations, modeling natural behaviors for human-like interaction with robots, a networked robot approach to sensing systems, shared autonomy and teleoperation, and learning and adaptation.
