让机械臂拥有可感知的人格,提升人机协作体验。
Toward a Universal Concept of Artificial Personality: Implementing Robotic Personality in a Kinova Arm
- 用三个维度定义机械臂人格,影响其动作与反应
- 144次实验表明用户能区分不同人格特征
- 语言交流显著增强人格感知效果,适合工业人机协作研究
人格在塑造人机交互中的作用日益凸显。精心设计的机器人人格可显著改善人机交互多个关键方面。然而,现有方法在非人形机器人上存在碎片化与僵化问题。本文首次将基于人格认知架构(涵盖尽责性、外向性、宜人性)的完整人格系统,应用于Kinova Jaco2机械臂。该人格以三维向量表征,影响动作执行、行为选择及对环境刺激的内部响应。通过144次协作游戏实验,考察用户是否能感知机械臂的人格差异,并探究语言在塑造感知中的作用。实验对比两种条件:仅通过动作和手势沟通,或增加言语交互。结果表明,用户可有效区分不同人格,且语言显著强化人格感知。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The fundamental role of personality in shaping interactions is increasingly being exploited in robotics. A carefully designed robotic personality has been shown to improve several key aspects of Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). However, the fragmentation and rigidity of existing approaches reveal even greater challenges when applied to non-humanoid robots. On one hand, the state of the art is very dispersed; on the other hand, Industry 4.0 is moving towards a future where humans and industrial robots are going to coexist. In this context, the proper design of a robotic personality can lead to more successful interactions. This research takes a first step in that direction by integrating a comprehensive cognitive architecture built upon the definition of robotic personality - validated on humanoid robots - into a robotic Kinova Jaco2 arm. The robot personality is defined through the cognitive architecture as a vector in the three-dimensional space encompassing Conscientiousness, Extroversion, and Agreeableness, affecting how actions are executed, the action selection process, and the internal reaction to environmental stimuli. Our main objective is to determine whether users perceive distinct personalities in the robot, regardless of its shape, and to understand the role language plays in shaping these perceptions. To achieve this, we conducted a user study comprising 144 sessions of a collaborative game between a Kinova Jaco2 arm and participants, where the robot's behavior was influenced by its assigned personality. Furthermore, we compared two conditions: in the first, the robot communicated solely through gestures and action choices, while in the second, it also utilized verbal interaction.
