Abstract or Description

In this chapter, we describe issues and challenges in deploying robot on stage, specifically in the context of theatrical plays. We are interested in understanding how an audience may perceive the robots. To this aim, we first survey available literature about cognitive human–robot interaction, with an emphasis on direct perception of robots and the observation of other humans interacting with robots. Then we discuss state-of-the-art approaches to select and sequence robot behaviors for human–robot interaction. Finally, we report about long-term interaction experiences involving robots and human actors on stage.
