用植物特性设计低干预机器人，让交互更自然舒适。
Plant-Inspired Robot Design Metaphors for Ambient HRI
- 以植物为隐喻，探索低功耗、有节奏的机器人交互形态。
- 通过原型与工作坊，发现人们偏好温和、随时间变化的机器人表现。
- 适合关注可持续交互、环境友好型机器人的设计师与研究者。
植物提供了一种矛盾的交互模型：它们存在感柔和、需求低，却能通过时间节奏和细微表达影响氛围、日常习惯与人际关系。相比之下，多数人机交互（HRI）基于拟人或拟兽范式，导致高显性、高要求的互动。本文采用设计驱动研究（RtD）方法，通过多轮构思、原型制作与反思，探究植物隐喻与形态如何衍生出新的设计要素，并组合成富有表现力的机器人形态。我们提出一系列概念性、开源的原型，用于测试植物启发的在场感、时间性、形态与动作。通过以原型为中心的工作坊，深入理解人们对植物启发机器人的感知与想象。本研究贡献包括：（1）一组植物启发的机器人实体；（2）关于人们如何感知此类机器人的设计洞见；（3）使用植物隐喻重塑人机交互的设计考量。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Plants offer a paradoxical model for interaction: they are ambient, low-demand presences that nonetheless shape atmosphere, routines, and relationships through temporal rhythms and subtle expressions. In contrast, most human-robot interaction (HRI) has been grounded in anthropomorphic and zoomorphic paradigms, producing overt, high-demand forms of engagement. Using a Research through Design (RtD) methodology, we explore plants as metaphoric inspiration for HRI; we conducted iterative cycles of ideation, prototyping, and reflection to investigate what design primitives emerge from plant metaphors and morphologies, and how these primitives can be combined into expressive robotic forms. We present a suite of speculative, open-source prototypes that help probe plant-inspired presence, temporality, form, and gestures. We deepened our learnings from design and prototyping through prototype-centered workshops that explored people's perceptions and imaginaries of plant-inspired robots. This work contributes: (1) Set of plant-inspired robotic artifacts; (2) Designerly insights on how people perceive plant-inspired robots; and (3) Design consideration to inform how to use plant metaphors to reshape HRI.
