ABSTRACT
Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) are being developed to fulfil a range of roles that support humans. As the complexity and capability of SARs increase, they will be expected to adopt higher degrees of responsibility and execute greater levels of autonomous decision-making. Therefore, it is imperative that the Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) and more widely the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) community seriously consider how SARs communicate about their role and the motivations and intentions behind their decisions. The proposed workshop will address challenges with respect to SAR decision-making, discuss current approaches to these challenges, and develop ideas and strategies for how the wider CHI community should move forward in this area.

Socially Assistive Robots in Smart Homes: Design Factors that Influence the User Perception
HRI '22: Proceedings of the 2022 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot InteractionDespite the growing interest in smart homes and robotics in many domains, very few studies have explored how socially assistive robots (SAR) can be integrated into smart homes to control them while socially interacting with people. This paper explores ...

Social RoboticsAbstractSocial Robots have been used in applications such as healthcare, education, services, and entertainment. Among all these, Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) have proved to have significant impact in the assistance to people with learning ...
Investigating the Potential of Life-like Haptic Cues for Socially Assistive Care Robots
HRI '23: Companion of the 2023 ACM/IEEE International Conference on Human-Robot InteractionPhysical touch (e.g., hugging, holding hands, petting an animal) plays a fundamental role in the provision of socio-emotional support. Touch-based interactions should thus be considered for socially assistive robots designed to provide similar support. ...
