| Popis: | This paper proposes a new method that guides humans through an exhibition corridor using a mobile robot mounted with a projector. Conventional guidance delivered by mobile robots is problematic because the robot cannot move when people gather round; alternatively, people may leave the robot and stray from the guidance route. In such cases, the robot must instruct people to move by a vocal or display message such as “please make way.” or “please come here.” Such repeated explicit instructions are uncomfortable to humans. This paper proposes a natural guidance method through a combination of both robotic and projected image movements. The proposed method supposes that human movements are affected not only by the position of the robot but also by the position of the projected image. The proposed method can control the robot and the guided person independently; that is, the robot can move while the guided person remains fixed, or the robot can remain fixed while guiding the person closer. To evaluate the method, the movements of individual 40 participants were monitored under four kinds of guiding behaviors. In these experiments, the proposed method guided each person’s positions without issuing explicit instructions. |
