Various motion cues can lead to the perception of animacy, including (1) simple motion
characteristics such as starting to move from rest,(2) motion patterns of interactions like …

The field of animal–robot and organism–robot interaction systems (ARIS, ORIS) is a
currently rapidly emerging field in biorobotics. In this special issue we aim for providing a …

The dog is a so far unique species to study interspecific communication and a promising
evolutionary model for preverbal human communication. Recently cats were reported to …

Dogs engage in social interactions with robots, yet whether they perceive them as social
agents remains uncertain. In jealousy-evoking contexts, specific behaviours were observed …

Animal-robot interaction studies have been of increasing interest in research, but most of
these studies have involved robots interacting with insects, birds, and frogs in laboratory …

Humans can distinguish flying birds from drones based solely on motion features when no
image information is available. However, it remains unclear which motion features of …

A tanulmány arra a kérdésre keresi a választ, hogy milyen kutatási irányok bontakozhatnak
