A Review of Verbal and Non-Verbal Human-Robot Interactive Communication
It addresses the problem of improving human-robot interaction for researchers and practitioners, but is incremental as it reviews and organizes existing knowledge.
The paper provides an overview of human-robot interactive communication, proposing ten desiderata to organize research and guide future work in this field.
In this paper, an overview of human-robot interactive communication is presented, covering verbal as well as non-verbal aspects of human-robot interaction. Following a historical introduction, and motivation towards fluid human-robot communication, ten desiderata are proposed, which provide an organizational axis both of recent as well as of future research on human-robot communication. Then, the ten desiderata are examined in detail, culminating to a unifying discussion, and a forward-looking conclusion.
