Title: A Developer’s Primer for Coding Human Behavior in Bots
Abstract: This session demonstrated ways to model human-robot interaction (HRI) using a practical coding scenario. We explored how to program a humanoid robot head that manages its eye contact to maximize “connection” and minimize “social awkwardness” in human interaction. This session addressed practical computational questions and frame cognitive modeling problems based on intuitive mechanical analogies. We leveraged the power of feedback Whole-Body Control to generate useful behaviors – and demonstrated the results on the Dreamer Humanoid robot head!
