For more than a decade, the field of human-robot interaction has generated many valuable
contributions of interest to the robotics community at large. The field is vast and addresses …

This chapter provides an overview of theory and data from joint action research in humans
that is potentially relevant for research on human-robot interaction. We will work with a broad …

Joint-action is one of the key research areas in robotics and especially important in physical
human-robot interaction. The two main criteria for robots, which should be integrated in …

With the advances in robotic technology, research in human-robot collaboration (HRC) has
gained in importance. For robots to interact with humans autonomously they need active …

Abstract Purpose of Review Humanoid robots are versatile platforms with the potential to
assist humans in several domains, from education to healthcare, from entertainment to the …

The vast expansion of research in human-robot interactions (HRI) these last decades has
been accompanied by the design of increasingly skilled robots for engaging in joint actions …

In this paper, we move toward offering psychological benchmarks to measure success in
building increasingly humanlike robots. By psychological benchmarks we mean categories …

For effective human-robot teaming, robots must gain the appropriate social-cognitive
mechanisms that allow them to function naturally and intuitively in social interactions with …

A key research challenge in robotics is to design robotic systems with the cognitive
capabilities necessary to support human–robot interaction. These systems will need to have …

As robots start to work alongside people, they are expected to coordinate fluently with
humans in teams. Many researchers have explored the problems involved in building more …
