The Impact of Social Robot Interaction on Engagement and Narrative Complexity in Primary School Children
Social robots are increasingly being integrated into educational settings as they can enhance engagement and learning, particularly in young learners. This study explored the impact of a social robot (NAO) during a storytelling activity with primary school children, focusing on engagement, narrative skills, and introspective language, compared to the interaction with a standard technological device such as a tablet). It was hypothesized that, in …
Aging well in an aging society: Italy at the forefront of global aging and the Age-It Research Program
Leveraging Italy's unique demographic profile and internal heterogeneity, Age-It promotes sustainable aging by harnessing the opportunities embedded in demographic change. The program ranges from the biology of aging to mental and physical health prevention, long-term care, labor market dynamics, and social participation-ultimately aiming to reshape how aging is perceived and managed in aging societies
Leveraging human–robot interaction and virtual reality for digital biomarkers in diagnostics and rehabilitation: A review from the Age-It Research Program
Despite promising results, several improvements are needed. Robotic solutions offer versatility in terms of applications but have low readiness. Similarly, thermodynamic models require strict conditions for reliability. Virtual reality-based cognitive assessment lacks temporal data for better discrimination, and VR-based cognitive rehabilitation is limited by a lack of multimodal stimulation. Future research should address these limitations effec…
A Framework for the Human-Centered Design of Service Processes Enabled by Medical Devices: A Case Study of Wearable Devices for Parkinson’s Disease
The successful introduction of medical devices (MDs) in real-world settings hinges on designing service processes that cater to stakeholders' needs. While human-centered design (HCD) approaches have been widely applied to service process innovation, the literature lacks a methodology that leverages MDs' key features to design service processes that meet stakeholders' needs. This study aims to fill this gap by developing a framework for the HCD of…
Knowledge Engineering Framework for IoT Robotics Applied to Smart Healthcare and Emotional Well-Being
User Profiling to Enhance Clinical Assessment and Human–Robot Interaction: A Feasibility Study
Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) are designed to support us in our daily life as a companion, and assistance but also to support the caregivers’ work. SARs should show personalized and human-like behavior to improve their acceptance and, consequently, their use. Additionally, they should be trustworthy by caregivers and professionals to be used as support for their work (e.g. objective assessment, decision support tools). In this context the aim …
Industrial exoskeletons from bench to field: Human-machine interface and user experience in occupational settings and tasks
Objective: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs) are considered nowadays the most serious issue in the Occupational Health and Safety field and industrial exoskeletons appear to be a new approach to addressing this medical burden. A systematic review has been carried out to analyze the real-life data of the application of exoskeletons in work settings considering the subjective responses of workers. Methods: The review was registered on…
Dancing With Parkinson's Disease: The SI-Robotics Study Protocol
Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most frequent causes of disability among older people, characterized by motor disorders, rigidity, and balance problems. Recently, dance has started to be considered an effective exercise for people with PD. In particular, Irish dancing, along with tango and different forms of modern dance, may be a valid strategy to motivate people with PD to perform physical activity. The present protocol aim…
Designing Acceptable Robots for Assisting Older Adults: A Pilot Study on the Willingness to Interact
The aim of this paper was to explore the psychosocial determinants that lead to acceptability and willingness to interact with a service robot, starting with an analysis of older users' behaviors toward the Robot-Era platform, in order to provide strategies for the promotion of social assistive robotics. A mixed-method approach was used to collect information on acceptability, usability, and human-robot interaction, by analyzing nonverbal behavio…
You need to show that you are not a robot
Given that today 60% of Internet traffic is generated by bots, ‘CAPTCHA’ (Completely Automated Public Turing Test to tell Computers and Humans Apart) tests that are supposedly impossible to be done by robots have been introduced. What are the cognitive and emotional effects of these tests on Internet users? Does this request to demonstrate they are not a robot affect users’ identity as human beings? To answer these questions, we selected two grou…
Introduction to special section “Bridging from user needs to deployed applications of social robots”
Social robots have matured enormously in the last two decades, reaching high levels of reliability, robustness, and safety in performing basic perception, navigation, and manipulation tasks. This e
Multiple Communication Roles in Human–Robot Interactions in Public Space
New Frontiers of Service Robotics for Active and Healthy Ageing
Enabling Global Robot Navigation Based on a Cloud Robotics Approach
In the future, social robots will permeate our daily life. An autonomous robot that has to move among different buildings needs to manage huge amount of data, as a consequence it is clear that the configuration of the navigation system becomes hard to manage. This paper presents a system, based on a cloud robotics paradigm, conceived to allow autonomous robots to navigate in indoor environment, which are not known a priori. The environment is div…
A Cloud Robotics Solution to Improve Social Assistive Robots for Active and Healthy Aging
Technological innovation in robotics and ICT represents an effective solution to tackle the challenge of providing social sustainable care services for the ageing population. The recent introduction of cloud technologies is opening new opportunities for the provisioning of advanced robotic services based on the cooperation of a number of connected robots, smart environments and devices improved by the huge cloud computational and storage capabili…
