ABSTRACT
We present Crowd of Oz (CoZ) -- a crowd powered system to enable real time dialogue between a Pepper robot and a user. CoZ includes media rich interfaces and advanced architecture to swiftly elicit crowd responses for the Pepper robot. We have empirically demonstrated that users can be engaged in a beneficial discussion with the crowd-powered robot, that acts as a coach to mitigate stress.

Applying politeness maxims in social robotics polite dialogue
HRI '12: Proceedings of the seventh annual ACM/IEEE international conference on Human-Robot InteractionAn important element of human-robot interaction, as with inter-human interaction, is conversation. Having previously suggested the Gricean maxims as suitable guidelines for social robotics dialogue, we discovered that a preferable alternative set of ...
A mobile robot with autonomous climbing and descending of stairs
Mobile robots are used to operate in urban environments, for surveillance, reconnaissance, and inspection, as well as for military operations and in hazardous environments. Some are intended for exploration of only natural terrains, but others also for ...
Apprentice of Oz: human in the loop system for conversational robot wizard of Oz
HRI '19: Proceedings of the 14th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot InteractionConversational robots that exhibit human-level abilities in physical and verbal conversation are widely used in human-robot interaction studies, along with the Wizard of Oz protocol. However, even with the protocol, manipulating the robot to move and ...
