In the future, in a society where robots and humans live together, HRI is an important field of research. While most human–robot-interaction (HRI) studies focus on appearance and dialogue, touch-communication has not been the focus of many studies despite the importance of its role in human–human communication. This paper investigates how and where humans touch an inorganic non-zoomorphic robot arm. Based on these results, we install touch sensors on the robot arm and conduct experiments to collect data of users’ impressions towards the robot when touching it. Our results suggest two main things. First, the touch gestures were collected with two sensors, and the collected data can be analyzed using machine learning to classify the gestures. Second, communication between humans and robots using touch can improve the user’s impression of the robots. |
