Social robots are becoming increasingly diverse in their design, behavior, and usage. In this
chapter, we provide a broad-ranging overview of the main characteristics that arise when …

Soon service robots will be employed in public spaces with frequent human-robot interaction
(HRI). To achieve a safe, trustworthy and acceptable HRI, service robots need to be …

The constructive need for robots to coexist with humans requires human-machine
interaction. It is a challenge to operate these robots in such dynamic environments, which …

Collaborative robots provide prospective and great solutions to human–robot cooperative
tasks. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review for two significant topics in human …
