Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a communication robot that can shows involuntary expressions appearing on its skin such as goose bumps and perspiration to explore the possibility of instinctive reactions of the robot. In communication with others, humans express not only feelings that can be recognized and expressed intentionally, but also instinctive emotions due to physiological reactions that appear reflective and involuntarily before intentional control. The human-robot communication based on the robot’s internal state may become realistic by the expressions of instinctive fear, tension, and relaxation. We verified the effectivenesses of the robot’s expressions of a) goose-bump-like emboss and b) perspiration-like water particles with the testbed robot.
